Breve Help

Hi!

I have been experimenting with Breve and I want to know how I can find the distance between two spheres. So far, when I click one of the spheres, the time interval and location is automatically printed and the neighbour lines are shown. However, I want the simulation to be able to print all the distances from the sphere i click..with all its neighbours (basicaly give me the length of the neighbour lines). Is this possible?!

I was also wondering if its possible to click an object, and have its location printed at every time interval, example every 3 seconds for 3 minutes. As a result, I would be able to map out the sphere's path later.

Thank You
Cindy
