[Solved]Mouse drag 3d rotation

[TheAgent]

Hello,

I Know there is a video showing how the mouse drag 3d rotation works. i tried copying some of the code there however it never worked for me. this was a while ago. Now i actually want to use it. So how can i implement the mouse move/drag 3d rotation of mc's or the entire swf. I tried looking at the UT flash stuff but im having a hard time picking out the relevant code.

Thank You.

ok well i got it working i just need it to rotate the canvas on mouse drag not mouse click

ok i figured it out! this is how i did the rotation!

_global.gfxExtensions = true;

var brot:Boolean = false;
var ox:Number = 0;
var oy:Number = 0;
var orx:Number = 0;
var ory:Number = 0;

mainmenu.playbut._z = -500;
mainmenu.achivebut._z = -700;
mainmenu.score._z = -900;
mainmenu.options._z = -1200;
mainmenu.credits._z = -1500;
mainmenu.walkmode._z = -1100;
mainmenu._perspfov = 60;

var idleTimeout:Number;

this.onMouseMove = function () {
	if (brot) {
		calcRotations();
	}
}

var mouseListener:Object = new Object;
mouseListener.onMouseDown =  function(button : Number) {
	if(button == 1) {
		brot = true;
		ox =  _root._xmouse;
		oy =  _root._ymouse;
		orx = mainmenu._yrotation;
		ory = -mainmenu._xrotation;
		
		_root.onEnterFrame = null;
	}
}

mouseListener.onMouseMove =  function(button : Number) {
	if(button == 1) {
		brot = false;
		if (_.idleTimeout) {
			_global.clearTimeout(_root.idleTimeout);}
			_root.idleTimeout = _global.setTimeout(_root, "resetForIdleLoop",5000);
	}
}
Mouse.addListener(mouseListener);

//3d stuff
function calcRotations():Void {
	var rotX:Number = orx + ((_root._xmouse - ox) / 1024) * 90;
	var rotY:Number = orx + ((_root._ymouse - oy) / 1024) * 90;
	
	mainmenu._yrotation = rotX;
	mainmenu._xrotation = -rotY;
}

var xAnim:Number = 0.025;
var yAnim:Number = 0.05;
var xThresh:Number = 5; 
var yThresh:Number = 10; 

function rotateAboutXAxis(mc:MovieClip):Void {
	mc._xrotation = mc._xrotation + xAnim;
	if (mc._xrotation > xThresh || mc.xrotation < -xThresh) {
		xAnim = -xAnim;
	}
}

function rotateAboutYAxis(mc:MovieClip):Void {
	mc._yrotation = mc._yrotation + yAnim;
	if (mc._yrotation > yThresh || mc.rotation < -yThresh) {
		yAnim = -yAnim;
	}
}

function startIdleLoop():Void{
	onEnterFrame = function(){
		rotateAboutXAxis(mainmenu);
		rotateAboutYAxis(mainmenu);
	}
}

I studied that video longer and it paid off

It for menu rotation or camera?

Looking at the code and seeing as this is posted in the Scaleform forum, I´d say it´s for menu rotation
