Hi Keith, << I am a registered Multimedia Developer, but I don't think I have full rights yet; that was a request in first message. So, technically I should have rights to section 23. >> I'm going to check on your access rights to section 23 with Bob Henderson. When you finally get access, you should check out Rolf's & Gus' viewer source code. (render.zip) << .. I finally figured out that the Z and Y are flipped. Looking through the manuals, I found that you could change the labels, so I change them to XYZ instead of XZY. .. In other words, I don't really get the default 3DS coordinate system. It says that it is a right-handed system, but that doesn't seem to be true; it really doesn't make any sense to me, could you please explain it? >> I'm assuming that you have the IPAS4 toolkit and on pg. 103 the coordinate system is described. In summary, internally 3ds uses the right-hand-rule and modifying the external labeling, the internal coordinate system stays the same. jonas[adesk]
