(...) I just tried it again, and must retract what I said about it before. I'm not sure why it didn't work before, but it does now. Additionally, the cursor disappears during mouse rotation, as it is supposed to. If there is anything else you'd like (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) That's funny, both movies look awful on my computer. I suspect it's because they run at too high a resolution for the old piece of junk. Don (24 years ago, 13-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) Not really, but the technique used in LEDIT is to center the view on a part and then zoom, if I remember the tutorial correctly. I might consider adding a key to switch the left mouse button to drag out a zoom rectangle. Someday. Don (24 years ago, 13-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) It works great! Mouse rotation works as it ought to now. Definitely a big improvement. I'm glad you were able to deduce what the source of the problem was from all the symptoms we were reporting. Thanks, Jim (24 years ago, 13-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

The update rotates much more predictably. Here are some movies of the 2 different version. In the old version, a slight mouse movement flips the model quite a bit. In the new version, the model doesn't move so much. Both of them show the pointer. I (...) (24 years ago, 13-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) Ok based on this and the observation that the first tiny rotation seems to be in the right direction I'm almost positive it's because the glutWarpPointer function doesn't work.

(...) What am I saying. At 50% zoom, 100 pixels will rotate it by x*2 degrees. So basically, the same "perspective" drag distance will rotate it the same. Don't know if this is a good idea or not. James (24 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)

(...) I like the idea of absolute based on the zoom. So, at 100% zoom, 100 pixels will rotate it x degrees. At 50% zoom, 100 pixels will rotate it by x/2 degrees. Just my idea. I don't know if it would actually be nicer or not. James (24 years ago, 11-Jun-02, to lugnet.cad.dev.mac)
