Thanks Len, No you're talking ;-) Excellent. Makes sense. A 2D aspect of X3D to use with the likes of the existing things now the domain of browsers just as black and white is still possible within a technology of colour. This would be very welcome I think. Many thanks Stephen Green >>> "Len Bullard" <cbullard@h...> 06/03/07 12:34:10 >>> My oversight: for text-intensive applications, use the 2D layer. Even then, you will want to think differently. This is a world metaphor, not a page metaphor. One doesn't scroll. One roams. In 2D, you find events. In 3D, events find you. len -----Original Message----- From: Len Bullard [mailto:cbullard@h...] As a general case, though, this is apples and oranges as far as large chunks of text go. Text is by its nature, flat 2D even though you can make extruded 3D text. 3D is usually unwieldy for text not because you can't do it, but because one seldom wants to look at the back of a line of text. ______________________________________________________________________ Please note the new simpler name for our website: http://www.bristol.gov.uk Our email addresses have also changed - visit http://www.bristol.gov.uk/bigchange for further details.
