Hi Joe,

Was not talking to you, I was talking to Kirill who said ImageView was a Billboard.

Thanks,

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)
