vizconnect documentation?

[Jeff]

Each time an object is added in vizconnect, both a raw and a wrapper object are added to the vizconnect session. The raw object is the same as the tracker, display window, input device etc. that is returned when using Vizard code to add the object. The wrapper object is a vizconnect layer that wraps up the raw object along with meta data and may include additional functionality based on the object type. The raw object is accessible from the wrapper:

joystick = vizconnect.getInput('joystick').getRaw()

The setUpdateFunction is called on a transport and defines the input signals that controls its movements. Are you trying to customize how the joystick moves a transport? If so, how do you want it to operate?

Hi Jeff.. thanks for your help. Actually, I am just trying to intercept buttondown events on the joystick so I can send them to a function that determines the appropriate action to take based on the button pressed. I am upgrading from a vizard 4 set up where I had a modified onSensorDown function doing that. Is there an easier way to do that in vizard 5 or do I still need the handle to the raw joystick to accomplish this?
