[Papervision3D] MovieScene3D-like thingy planned for 2.0 ? Why container sprites are cool ; )

[Rob Bateman]

arrgh, trying to clear unread Papervision emails..

Not sure if this has been dealt with yet, but in the meantime, you can do
this right now over at away3d.com. the ownCanvas property allow you to apply
filters and blendModes to individual objects, while still allowing them to
be z-sorted. You can also use ownCanvas on 3d object containers, allowing
you to group objects with the same filter effects.
