The workaround I have used so far is to make my own custom assembly images from LView and them manually put them in the final PDF file. That's what I did (URL) here>.

If such a mechanism were to exist in LDView and LDGLite, LPub could support that. This combined (...) (15 years ago, 5-Dec-09, to lugnet.cad, FTX)

That would then work independently on the renderer. And if the coordinates were given in % (...) (15 years ago, 5-Dec-09, to lugnet.cad)

LPub could find the min/max locations of all parts added and have the look at coordinate be (min_x+max_x)/2, (min_y+max_y)/2, (min_z+max_z)/2. This would give a general idea of where to look.
