'Turntable' option for camera_mode?

K3D-tools / K3D-jupyter

K3D lets you create 3D plots backed by WebGL with high-level API (surfaces, isosurfaces, voxels, mesh, cloud points, vtk objects, volume renderer, colormaps, etc). The primary aim of K3D-jupyter is to be easy for use as stand alone package like matplotlib, but also to allow interoperation with existing libraries as VTK.

'Turntable' option for camera_mode? #446

CSwigg commented 5 months ago

Hello!

I've noticed that when working with certain datasets, the 'orbit' and 'trackball' camera modes often leave me disoriented. I'm wondering if there's a possibility to configure the camera to function similarly to the 'turntable' mode, as utilized by Plotly (https://plotly.com/python/3d-axes/). This mode, as I understand it, restricts the camera from tilting left or right about the Z-axis.

Thank you!

@CSwigg Thanks! K3D is build over three.js - I will check if there is ready to adapt and I will come back with feedback
