[Papervision3D] Move camera to coordinates on a sphere

[Alex Br]

You must be reading my mind :P This is exactly what I want.

how do you calculate position of each plane?
if you use some angles, you can orbit the camera using the same angles.
look at this site: http://rnafoundation.com/
 click on "RNA artists" and there you will see the cylinder of planes. 
if it's like what you want i can help with exact code

 So, I have a big sphere made of planes right at position 0,0,0. The camera
 looks at the sphere. When I click a plane on the sphere I want the camera to
 move at the location of the clicked plane or the sphere to rotate until the
 plane I've clicked to be right in front of the camera. How can I do that?
 Or, if it's easier, make that a cylinder of planes. Or if it's already
 posted in here please point me to the thread, I've searched but I couldn't
 find.
