It would definitely work with spheres since you would have normal information. I am not sure if single points can be lit.
You could also change the color of the points as they move away from the viewer to make them appear darker. -mike -----Original Message----- From: Discussion list for Java 3D API [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Clifford Lyon Sent: Sunday, October 31, 2004 1:22 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: [JAVA3D] more PointArray questions I have a point array displayed - it amounts to a 3d scatterplot. It looks great when rotating, but when it's still it loses all depth cues. Is it possible to use a directional light to have points farther from the viewer rendered with less light to add a cue? Or would the points need to be actual spheres or something? tia Cliff =========================================================================== To unsubscribe, send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] and include in the body of the message "signoff JAVA3D-INTEREST".
