Okay. I dont really expect anyone to be able to shed any light on this, but if you can, splendid! I just feel like ranting a bit.. Soo yeah.
Why the frig cant Flash, Illustrator, Freehand, and/or any Vector graphics program, work in a Z axis? Vector graphics are all about mathematical calculations right? Sooo why cant they add a 3rd dimension to it? Like, if you have a box on the 2d plane, you can rotate it left or right (on the X or Y axis), scale it, distort it, all that fun stuff. But you cant you say, "push" it back from one of the corners to get a specific perspective? you can kinda do that using the perspective, distort, and skew tools, but those arent really REAL Z axis tools. It's faking it, and it hardly ever looks good or real. I suppose in Flash with all the animation and what not, adding another axis would just make it too complicated.. But whats the big deal about the other programs? Give us a 3rd dimension!!! Pleeeease! >_<
....... k im done.
