ABSTRACT:
A user interface for a three-dimensional (3D) environment is comprised of a pointer and a control polyhedra. Movement of the pointer is controlled by a pointing device, such as a mouse or trackball. The control polyhedra has at least one visible face and each visible face is parallel to a plane of the three-dimensional environment. Selection of the visible face using the pointing device moves the control polyhedra in the plane parallel to the visible face.
