Ah.. but if you render a scene you need either layers or non-automatic rendering (banging the objects in a custom order depending on the distance to the camera). 

Does the drawobject with jit.gl.sketch method allow for non-automatic rendering? I don't really see how..

Btw could it be true that the drawobject message is not documented in the html help of either jit.gl.sketch or GL Group?
