Hi all... newbie here.

Could someone explain what the difference between these two lines of
code are?

Scene.model[1].transform.rotate(10,10,10)

And

Scene.model[1].rotate(10,10,10)

I'm trying to get my head round the transform object and don't get this.
They both appear to do exactly the same thing.

Another thing I puzzle over is the fact that I can type scene.model[1]
and scene.model("mybox") and refer to the same object.

How does this model[1] / camera[1] thing work???

Thanks in advance for any help.

Best
James.
