Okay, documentation isn't what it should be. Point taken. But, its open source, so guess you simply have to live with some limitations. Can understand your frustration though, sorry ;-)

Yes. The output is fine with a normalized vector. I've calmed down a bit now, though I'm going to have to work late because of the delay all this caused me, but I still really think that some documentation would be helpful in these circumstances. Take the matrix3D..copy(matrix3D):Matrix3D function. Which one is copied to which? Which one is returned? It's an absolutely fine and flexible API to have, but only if it's well documented. I feel like I code at less than half my normal pace just because documentation doesn't exist. As it happens, I don't document internal project code either, but I sure-as-hell document public APIs. Jeez indeed.
