How do I rotate my view using Java 3D?
Created May 4, 2012
Bill Day Java 3D does not have a camera per se, but you can
move the ViewPlatform, which moves your view into
the world (and thus, appears to move the "camera").
More information on this distinction is available
from
a related java3d-interest mailing list post.
This java3d-interest mailing list post also contains
additional information on how you can move the
ViewPlatform in your code. An in depth discussion is
available from my columns (search for "ViewPlatform"
and "View" for more) at:

and

For more on keyboard navigation, please refer to the
KeySample.java
application developed by Markus Neifer
on top of my com.javaworld.media.j3d.Example02
app.
