Abstract
A computer-implemented graphics system provides visual cues for navigating a three-dimensional space. A two-dimensional viewport of the three-dimensional space is displayed on a monitor attached to the computer, and an object is moved through the two-dimensional viewport of the three-dimensional space according to a position of the input device attached to the computer. A graphical image of the object is created using constructive geometric data stored therein, wherein the constructive geometric data identifies at least one constructive system, and the constructive system identifies at least one constraint on the processing of the object. The graphics system determines a position of the object within the three-dimensional space relative to the two-dimensional viewport, and generates one or more visual cues to indicate the position.
