setting the point around which the viewpoint can be rotated

[Paul E. Rybski]

Hi,
        Is there a way in a plugin to set the point around which the GUI
viewpoint is rotated?  This would be a C++ equivalent of doing the
operation where you push 's' in the GUI and the click on a point in the
display.

Thanks,

-Paul

No there isn't. Is there a usage scenario where you think this
functionality is critical?

Maybe EnvironmentBase::SetCamera can be overloaded with a lookat 3D position...

It's not critical.  I was just looking for a way to set up the viewing
environment for a data display plugin so that the initial camera pose
and the point around which it rotates could be set up for the user at
initialization time.

Ok, it is added. Check out EnvironmentBase::SetCameraLookAt (rev 310)
