Hi all.
Once upon a time, I saw some glossy's about a CASE tool from SGI
that included a debugger that used OpenGl to give the code
developer some interesting 3D capabilities to view and watch his
programs data and datastructures.
unfortunately I never actually got to see the program in action so

The net effect of what I described is what you want (I think), the limititaion is that
it requires filling the polygons.

Hi,
I don't know if you also want to fill the polgons or if you only want

If you want to fill them then the trick I use might be useful to you.

Did you get any answers to this question? I'm about to buy a

Hi.
While I work for Sun, I don't speak for the Java3D team.

I've only ever used the NetBeans and Forte IDE's and they can

Hmm...
Maybe your card uses the Zbuffer as an integer, and you
are trying to interpret it as a float??
Just a guess.

Josh,
You may be right in your case. It probably is a light vs. heavy thing.
But in my case, I'm using the AWT scrollpane, just for that very
reason - It's also Heavyweight, so there shouldn't be any issues.
I think it's some sort of problem in the uncover/repaint code.
