What I miss in most Ldraw apps is a way to freely position the camera. The one
part missing in most is the possibility to move the camera on the relative
Z-axis. That is, away from or into the subject.

Now that would be the zoom, wouldn't it? What I actually meant was a) a zoom
that can get "inside" a model (useful for buildings specially) and b) a way to
move and rotate the camera's target point.

I think ldview and ldglite can do this.

There is a nice little and probably well hiden feature i have added to GLIDE.
Its called "Brick Focus". To use it press the 'F' key. Its will focus the camra
on the curently selected brick. To reset the camera just press 'R'. Its the
easyest way to move the camra in my opinion ala HOMEWORLD.

If you Deselect all the bricks you can then use the brick move keys to move the
camra.

Brick grooping. Ever played an RTS game eg Command & Conquer? Im trying to take
lots of insperation from them. To make a brick groop press ALT and a number key.
Later you can reselect that groop by pressing the number key again. There is
more you can do with grooping its at the bottom of the help file.

Let me know if you like it.
