Align camera perpendicular to an object
« on: August 11, 2014, 10:45:38 am »
Hello,

I have a "floor" for my scene made of 800 triangles that are doing a big rectangle. Always i are trying to align the camera manually, but i want to know if there is a method for align the camera on 90 degrees over my object and center. is it possible?

Thank you very much.

There's no method to do this in one step. You could place the camera at the transformed center of the plane, reset it's rotation (Camera.getBack().setIdentity();) and rotate it PI/2 down around X or something like that.
