An EventListener listen for clicks for each of the four buttons, executing the corresponding function, which manipulates the X or Y value by 10.

The cola commercial (which I’ve mentioned recently) was due this morning, and my endless hours of rendering time were condensed to a 30 second display of glass textured concept-lacking madness. I had only used Cinema 4D once, for a still-frame bottle render, before this, hence the modest detail in the models. Anyway, I’m very happy [...]
