Seamless View Switching Algorithm for ArcRotateCamera in Babylon.js
I’ll describe how I derived an algorithm to switch seamlessly between perspective and orthographic views. The solution will be implemented in babylon.js. Basics (the why) A camera can be controlled by 3 operations - pan, zoom and orbit. These operations in arcRotateCamera are performed by changing the following properties: camera position (where the camera is at) camera target (where the camera is looking at) More about how it works here. Consider using only these two properties to perform the operations. Although pan and orbit changes are reflect in both the views, zoom doesn’t seem to have any effect in orthographic view (see why?) ...
