We find 'perfly' very useful as a general method of displaying models, but
have needed to modify it slightly to suit our requirements.

I now wish to have greater control of the motion through a scene.
Specifically, we find acceleration by the mouse keys is too rapid in some
cases.

I have not found the place in the code where this can be controlled, but I
have noted the declaration of a pfiTDFXformer motion model interface.
In the 'Performer Class Reference Guide' there is an enticing entry:

void pfiTDFXformerStartMotion(pfiTDFXformer* xf, float startSpeed, float
startAccel, float accelMult)

which seems to have the relevent parameters. However, if this is a function,
I seem unable to access it. I am suprised there does not seem to be a function
in the pfiTDFXformer class to do this; have I missed it?

Perhaps I am completely misunderstanding the documentation; If so, apologies.
Any pointers in the right direction would be welcome!

regards,
Colin Bannister
