Hi  
I need to import 3DS model into flash and hilite some arias on this model. I’m good in as3 but just started with Away3D.

Any hints appreciate: how to pull objects form imported 3D model and sort it out in arrays by hight.

It is a floor plan with elevated solids. I need to sort them by height and hilite different colors depends of surface height.
