In response to Thomas Francis's question, this snippet takes the Simple z-sorting snippet and shows how one might go about adding some basic key controls to it. It works by permanently applying x and y rotation transformations to the set of 3D points every time a key is released.
If you need to be able to rotate on both the x and y axis at the same time - and just need more flexibility... one way to do it would be to use quaternions - which may be tricky - but there are plenty of examples out there in java, processing and C/C++ just waiting to be ported (been on the todo list for some time actually).
Haven't been posting every day because I've been out of the country and away from my computer... have a backlog of snippets that need to be cleaned up and put in the pipeline...
