ImageView is a Billboard node you're saying that in 3D it is always oriented towards the camera? Shouldn't that be a property of ImageView rather than a automatic behavior?

I did not say that a imageview IS a billboard, and i also did not say that "in 3d" it is always oriented towards the camera.

Remember, JavaFX Nodes can take 3D transforms right now. I do not think there is a notion of "3D or 2D" for an ImageView.

The previous example code shows how an image view could behave (possibly if the transforms work like i think they do) LIKE a billboard.

You could test this in 2.2 kind of, but you wouldn't be able to see the actual results i think. (since cameras don't move yet)
