Orienting links? #57

Open JamesMcCrae opened 9 years ago

JamesMcCrae commented 9 years ago

In JanusVR, portals have an orientation (at least a direction to face forward). Do link elements support the "rotation" attribute and if so, could you add something visual to show their orientation within SceneVR, which would motivate people to do so with their SceneVR markup (presently the visualization is just a sphere)? If not, perhaps having "auto-facing" portals in Janus is the best option.

Hey James, link elements have a rotation, they are represented by a sphere in the world, but when you click then they become a two-sided 2d circle, that's what the rotation is for, to show how the portals open and close. I'd be pretty happy to make the portals directional in their un-opened representation, so that people would rotate them when they're constructing scenes. :)
