New library : Picking Mar 1st, 2010, 11:18am   A brand new Picking library is available here : http://code.google.com/p/processing-picking-library/ http://n.clavaud.free.fr/processing/ It makes it easy to pick an object in a 2d or 3d scene : just add picker.start(id) before the object you want to draw. Then you can later pick it using picker.get(mouseX, mouseY). See it in action : http://www.openprocessing.org/visuals/?visualID=7744 http://www.openprocessing.org/visuals/?visualID=7953 http://www.openprocessing.org/visuals/?visualID=7881 More examples coming soon... Any feedback is welcome!
