[ANN] 3D Carousel Menu for LiveCode

Scott,

Performance on the mobile platform is much lower when compared to the
desktop. While making it I haven't unearthed any special tricks to make it
especially fast on iOS, but to keep respectable performance with it you can:

a. keep the source images small.
b. decrease the number of intermediate steps the animation uses for the
rotation. (rrpC3dSetStepCount)
c. turn off the reflections, if necessary. (rrpC3dSetReflection)

In addition to these techniques, the rrpC3dSetAnimationQuality command
allows you to optimise for speed by reducing the amount of processing that
occurs on the object layers, at the expense of accuracy of the 3D effect
during the rotation.

I plan to put a video on the RunRevPlanet YouTube channel showing it running
on actual iOS hardware in the coming days.
