scene.camera[1].transform.identity to reset it right??
nope, that would reset it to a transform with position, rotation at 0.
Have you perhaps missed the fact that unless you make a duplicate of the
transform, you are just holding a refernce to it? For example, it you were
to do the following
member("3dScene").camera[1].transform.rotation = vector(0,0,0)
tTransform = member("3dScene").camera[1].transform()
member("3dScene").camera[1].transform.rotate = vector(0,30,0)
put tTransform.transform.rotation
-- vector(0,30,0)
I know when I started out on 3d, I spent a couple of infuriating days trying
to figure out why something wasn't working, only to discover I needed to
make a duplicate of the transform.
tTransform = member("3dScene").camera[1].transform().duplicate()
Hope the problem was that simple, good luck
