add the geometry you want to rotate to a jit.gl.node (simply placing a jit.gl.node in your sub-patch will do the trick), and rotate the jit.gl.node

Thanks Rob,

That allows me to transform the cube visually yes - but the other piece to the puzzle which I did not mention was that I would be using jit.proxy to find the position of the cube. You will see that by using "getposition" the transformation of the cube is still unchanged. Ultimately the goal is to find the difference in position between the cube and the spheres in the scene for 3D sound spatialization.

Maybe I just need to calculate the cartesian coordinates and send them to the jit.anim.path - was just hoping for a simpler GL rotation.

so i think the trick then is to attach a jit.anim.node to the gl object you want to query with the jit.proxy, and query the jit.anim.node instead. use "getworldpos" to get the world-space position of the object which should include the transformations of it's parent jit.gl.node sub-context.

dang Rob you done did it again - that was the answer

That's a very nice way of doing things :)
