Yeah, you are probably trolling me - constantly misreading stuff. Good job.

Re: [proposal] Add option to disable turntable rotation constraint

Post by nabos »

Hi everyone,

I would like to make a code proposal for this feature as it is still needed.
I did it localy by replacing the Turntable code for testing and it seems to work (there is still a very small unwanted rotation that makes the z axis not vertical over time but the feeling is closer to Blender anyway).

I then tried to add an Orbit Style but the new option won't show in the drop-down.
Can I have some advice on where to look for a solution ?

Here is my branch:

I understand why you posted here and it is sensible as a follow up. Alas, you are asking for developers advice and I'm not sure they are watching this forum. So you may consider to post there a complete version of your question.
