<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">I started a project in Papervision about 3 weeks ago, using online resources and tutorials to familiarize myself with the library and get a handle on how to</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> <FONT FACE="Calibri">achieve</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri"></FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> <FONT FACE="Calibri">specific goals. About a week ago, as I was finishing the last aspect of the project, I began to have issues that I didn</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">’</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">t</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> <FONT FACE="Calibri">foresee</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri"> with event handling</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri"> on objects. </FONT></SPAN></P>
<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">I jump online and read on the forums that using the Great White Trunk is the way to go, so I backup what I have, and</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> <FONT FACE="Calibri">start to use the latest build. That causes all kinds of issues because FreeCamera3D is gone. So I read up on the changes (as best I can find) and change it over to Camera3d with no target. That gets the project to build, but now the camera doesn</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">’</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">t function correctly. I rework my positioning and get it back to partial working order only to find that my event handling is still bugg</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">y.</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> </SPAN></P>
<P DIR=LTR><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">I read up that the new method of using BasicView is strongly suggested, so I backup my stuff again and implement BasicView. This screws up my camera positioning again and</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"> <FONT FACE="Calibri">still, event handling isn</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">’</FONT></SPAN><SPAN LANG="en-us"><FONT FACE="Calibri">t working as expected.</FONT></SPAN></P>
