Function:ss2scaf
From S2PLOT
ss2scaf
Set the camera position, up vector, view direction and camera rotate/focus point.
Prototype
void ss2scaf(XYZ position, XYZ up, XYZ vdir, XYZ focus, int worldcoords);
Description
Set the camera position, up vector, view direction AND focus (rotate-about) point, all in one shot. If worldcoords > 0 then caller has given world coordinates, otherwise viewport coordinates are used. It is up to the caller to ensure a self-consistent camera position is given (orthogonal vectors).
