Re: [Virtools] set position 3d entity by getting mouse position

Huuh,

if i understand you, the problem is here, that the 2d picking switch to
false when you move the mouse fast, because no object is picking if your
mouse pointer is not over the object!
Think you have to connect the 2d picking false output too.
Which components you get and set with the BB?
We search also for a solution to pick and move 3d objects. But without
center the object on the cursor, like you move geometrie in 3D packages like
3DMax.
Anyone a idea?
