This method works great for more natural mouse-controlled rotation, but I want to be able to rotate to a specific rotation from the current (angular) position. I know I could probably do this if I was able to calculate the current rotation, and obtain a delta from that and my desired rotation, but rotationX, rotationY, localRotationX, localRotationY etc. all seem to be zero. Is the only way to obtain single rotation values in this case to extract them from the Matrix3D at DisplayObject3D.transform? I was hoping to find a slightly more high-level solution before delving into that kind of thing! I have the same question as the last two people unfortunately!

However, I find it hard to apply the source to my papervision 3D version....so in the end, I don't get to enjoy the examples....Is it possibel to attach the appropriate link to the effective version of papervision 3D ?
