    Dear All
    I would like to create an interface for my sandbox that is totally out of the 3d view(I will be using the web player for final pubblication).
    So that all the interaction and attributes of the objects in the 3d scene can be manipulated from the webpage where the 3d window will resides.

    Eventually I will have some of the informations of the web page directly coming form a web database.
    (for example the colour of an object etc...)

    Can anyone point me to the right direction?
    In the asset store I could not find much...

    Many thanks
    Nic

    If the user should be able to manipulate the values themselfs you need to communicate with the surrounding webpage.
    http://docs.unity3d.com/Manual/UnityWebPlayerandbrowsercommunication.html should get you started.

    If you just want data to come from an external source ("color of objects") you could just use a webservice written in your favorite server side language which the webplayer queries using the WWW class.
