node stack and panning question

[shadowphile <sha...@gm...>]

Hi all.  I've just started playing with this engine tonight.  I may be under
a misapprehension.
I conceived of using a background cubic node to display a cloudy sky.
I then overlayed a cubic node of my landscape, but then the screen locks up,
won't allow me to pan.
Is this right?  Does any stack of nodes block mouse control of panning?
thanks,
Matt

No, that must be a bug. I've never tried stacking multiple cubic nodes, 
but it should work. In fact, using two cubic nodes will be a great way 
to achieve a moving sky once the capability of rotating the cubes 
relative to each other is implemented, so I want this to work.

Could you prepare a small example project that shows the problem, so we
can have a look at it?

Sure, here's the upload.  It's very simple.

OK, I can reproduce this. Very weird behavior. I'll have a closer look, 
this seems worth fixing before the 0.2.7 release.
