Hi!

If I am not mistaken, Mathematica calls it "manipulate", while
"interact" is Sage's brand. Sorry if  I got this wrong.

Admittedly my memory for those things is not good, but I think I
remember that Sage had that feature before Mathematica. In that case,
let us hope that Sage does not end like the inventors of the
telephone, Philipp Reis (first public demonstration of a phone link in
1861) and Antonio Meucci (first presentation of a device in 1860
[without a phone link] and first patent application in 1871 [but
running out of money, so, his caveat expired])...

Dragging 3D plots with the mouse is standard in Sage.

If you create a 3D graphics object and display it then by default it
is shown by "JMol". Interestingly, it was developed by
biochemistrists, for showing large molecules. But it can be used more
general. And JMol provides the mouse-drag feature.

In some cases, you would use a different way of showing a 3D object,
namely using a ray tracer. This would produce a static picture, but it
is only used if you want it. See the relevant pages in the manual.

Best regards,
Simon
