Feature request: Keep views within screen edges #1

Open duemunk opened 10 years ago

duemunk commented 10 years ago

It's a really great implementation. I have one small suggestion, and that is to keep the views within the screen edges. This would improve the illusion of the 3D world.

First off, the max visual height of a view should be no higher than the screen height. Secondly the disappearing view just barely extends beyond the sides of the screen. This might be solved be adjusting the perspective (.m34).

This would basically require shifting the cube backwards (away from the camera) at the same time as rotating it. It can be done, but the effect would look a bit peculiar in practice I think.

I might add this as an option.

Exactly! I've seen implementations (in other interface domains) which did keep the max visible height equal to screen height. IMHO, that looked more gullible.
