Orbiting Camera

18 September 2016 23:07
It might be a stupid question but how do I reproduce the rotate button on the fast preview?
I want to make a button on a project that do the exact same thing (i.e. you click on it the camera automatically orbits, if you click again or control the camera in the scene the rotation stops)

Hi,

For a question of programming, to rotate a camera like this button, you can create an empty in Blender and positionne this in the center of the scene. Your camera will look at this empty. Now, parent your camera with your empty and just rotate your empty in vertical axis for create an orbiting camera. (If I understand your question).

After, create a button who rotate this empty at first click and stop this rotation if you click elsewhere.

I hope I helped you.
I'm not crazy ! My reality is just different than yours.
