Yeah, I sensed that could be a problem. If it was spinnable though, and not always spinning, do you think I could drag it when it was not being spun? Maybe a right click to spin it or to drag it vs both being left click? Always spinning slowly is probably less desirable and I could let go of that thought.
Then the last thing I need to be able to do is click or double click the globe to open a window. Preferably, a window that expands out as it opens.
This is all just an idea based on some of the high tech looking GUI's you see in movies like Iron Man and others where you grab an element, drag it to the center, open it, use it, close it and toss it back, and grab another. I want to make the GUI as fun as functional.
