This is fantastic on my iPhone. Looking around just works, and feel right.


Are these flying 3-D views standardized? Is there a common WebGL framework for something like this, which includes user interface controls? Something where we can just plug in our own data?


They are not standardized. However if you'd like to render your graphs in this tool refer to this doc: https://github.com/anvaka/pm#your-own-graphs


Good use of accelerometer.


Why why why is the help menu bound to the mouse scroll? Bind it to 'h' or '?', or better yet, don't make it disappear. I had to reload the page to get it back.


I observed people using the tool before it was bound to the scroll. Almost everybody used scroll in attempt to fly forward, while WASD navigation wasn't obvious. So I decided to show help on scroll...

Will bind it to h and ? as well


Any specific reason not to allow mouse wheel as fly forward/back?


this is done now.


Really cool to see how the Zope/Plone ecosystem is so highly interconnected but rarely used outside.
