Hi 

I would like to use the mouse to double-click on a line object in 3D
applet after which the line lights up with a new colour. 

Preferably I would like to do this in a LineStripArray, but only
highlight the line from the LineStripArray that I am actually double
clicking on. 

I can't really work out where to start - browsed the web for info but
couldn't find much. Some information about sensors and picking but
nothing specific about the mouse as such. 
  
Here is a challenge!

Anyone able to provide me with a code example?  That would be highly
appreciated. 

Thanks

Hugo
