Hi Bill,

I've got one question about Coordinate System in VisAD. What is the link
between the coordinate system of the samples and the coordinate system
of Java3d ? In fact, my question is "how to locate the centered eye ?"
If I use :

Canvas3D canvas = disp_rend.getCanvas();
Point3d eye_position = new Point3d();
canvas.getCenterEyeInImagePlate(eye_position);

I got {0,0,0}.
Is there a method that gives the eye position in the same coordinate
system as the samples ?

Thanks in advance
