Controlling the 3D world overview

Macromedia Director 8.5 Shockwave Studio provides powerful methods for overall control of the 3D world, including Lingo for handling new 3D generated events, selecting models (picking), vector math operations, and transforms. In addition, the properties and methods of Director's global renderer services object supply common rendering properties for all 3D sprites and cast members. Finally, 3D cast member and sprite properties and commands allow additional control of their content during playback.

The commands and properties given here in tabular form are also listed alphabetically, with accompanying syntax, definitions, and examples, in the 3D Lingo Dictionary.
