Hi group,

I have just submitted a package for interactive selection of the option ViewPoint for Plot3D and ListPlot3D:
http://library.wolfram.com/infocenter/MathSource/6186/

The realization of three-dimensional graphics in Mathematica doesn't support free rotation 
and high quality rendering the picture simultaneously. One has to change either manually 
the option ViewPoint and repeat rendering the graphics or to use the package RealTime3D` 
which supports library OpenGL and has some limitations. The package ViewPointSelect` 
combines these two alternatives. It provides an easy way to choose interactively view point 
of 3D graphics in Mathematica and redraw the result by standard Mathematica functions. 
The current version of package supports functions Plot3D and ListPlot3D.

Sincerely,
Yuri Kandrashkin
