S2PLOT provides a camera that can be controlled from within code. This enables the easy creation of data fly-throughs, or the selection of default viewpoints to help highlight specific features of a dataset.

The S2PLOT camera is specified by:

  • The camera position
  • The up vector
  • The view direction vector
  • The coordinate system (world or viewport)
  • The focal point

It is also possible to control whether the camera is set to spin around the focal point, and the spin speed.
