I'm interested in developing a Widget which would allow me to control the movements of a 3D object within a window. Movements being such things as rotation and zooming. Has anyone out there developed their own widget or know of an existing widget whose function would fit the above description? And yes, I realize X is 2D, but I'm thinking ahead to the near-future when it will be possible to do 3D graphics in a 2D windowing system (like PEX). Please reply to me -- I'll summarize to the net and anyone else who is interested. Thanks much!

Glassner's new Graphics Gems book has the code for a screen 3-D trackball.
