Generating display of a 3-dimensional object

Abstract:

A first part of a 3-dimensional object is generated for display and displayed on a display device. The first part has at least a base interface and a first interface. The displayed first part is caused to change shape. A second part of the 3-dimensional object is generated for display, the second part having at least a base interface. The second part is translated and oriented so that the base interface of the second part mates with the first interface of the first part when the second part is displayed on the display device. The second part is displayed on the display device with the base interface of the second part mating with the first interface of the first part.
