    Lightbulb Creating a 3d modeler, questions.

    yeah, i know. insane. but none the less...

    im using a OGL controll for the perspective, but, what should i use for the top,left, and front views? i cant use the OGL controll again, since selecting verticies in it would be a pure *****. basically, i need somthing gridded that i can plot, select, manipulate, and draw lines between, vertices.

    ideas?

    You wont be making this in one day. It is a several month project, if you want it to be something that you can really use.

    Hum it wouldn't be that hard, for example to draw the top view you would just ignore the height coord and draw everything using the other 2 coords by connecting the vertices with lines (VB's Line function would do )
    Code:
    Temp = Me.GetIQ()
    'Error 9: Overflow
    'DON'T PANIC! :eek:
