In november last year Hans Hagen was so kind to send me a copy of back-u3d.mkiv which is now included in the latest beta. As Hans mentioned the code he gave me is untested. After a couple of tests here are my findings *) The preview does not work at this moment. I only see a light blue square which can be activated. After which the 3d viewer shows the embedded 3d image *) Specifying several views as shown in back-u3d.mkiv shows up in the resulting pdf as "unknown view" *) I also experimented with different values for coo, c2c, roll etc. When not specifying any of these settings the embedded 3d is always shown with the incorrect roll i.e the roll is always 90 degrees off For anyone interested, the 3d file was produced with Asymptote 1.91 ( http://asymptote.sourceforge.net/) =============== Context sample code ============================== \starttext \startluaparameterset [u3d:myset:display:1] toolbar=false, preview="prcu3d/loading.png", view = { name = 'default', bg = {1,1,1}, mag = 25, coo = {2,2,2}, c2c = {0,0,1}, rot = {40,0,60}, roo = 2, lights = 'CAD' } \stopluaparameterset \useexternalfigure [cubes] [prcu3d/cubes.prc] [width=\textwidth, height=0.5\textwidth, display=u3d:myset:display:1] \placefigure[here]{3d cube}{\externalfigure[cubes]} \stoptext ========================== end of Context sample code =======================================

May you provide asy, png, prc and pdf (both ConTeXt and Asymptote->LaTeX versions)? Sincerely, Michail PS. That was me who was to test that u3d/prc incusion code...

*) The preview does not work at this moment. I only see a light blue square which can be activated. After which the 3d viewer shows the embedded 3d image The developers are waiting for some functions to appear in luatex before doing the preview "the right way". I have a patch implementing preview "somehow".
*) Specifying several views as shown in back-u3d.mkiv shows up in the resulting pdf as "unknown view" Most likely a typo bug in lpdf-u3d (at the start of make3dview - if you are listening, Hans ;) Have a fix for that too.

Most likely my fault, but there are different points of view on what is default camera position (moview15, Asymptote, OpenGL, U3D, Adobe Viewer), so most likely the default default is not the one Asymtote expects. Plus Asymptote is micromanaging things - it not only sets camera, but also moves the model itself, to be better seen, apparently. We'll have to dig into that someday - see you on Asymptote forum if you wanna play and have time for technicalities. Sincerely, Michail PS. Sorry for slow answer - had to fix Asymptote PRC output first.
