How about if we just separate the shearing "oblique" projection
transformation from the underlying modeling transformation?
I'd be happy using this for the default matrix.
0.707104,0,0.707104,0.353553,0.866025,-0.353553,-0.612372,0.5,0.612372
I think it's a 45 degree spin and a 30 degree tilt or something like that.
Then figure out what projection transformation converts that to the
ldlite "oblique" default (who knows how to do that?):
1,0,1,0.5,1,-0.5,-1,0,1
Call that your projection matrix. Then I could give 3 projection type
options instead of the current 2. ie.
projection = perspective, orthogonal, or ldraw oblique.
This might solve my camera moving problems nicely, and also eliminate
the nasty jump from ldraw oblique to orthogonal or perspective when you
start spinning the model with the mouse.

| I like that idea. If the default view is what you said (the [0.707104 ...] matrix), then a projection matrix of 1.4142,0,0,0,1.2196,...171,1.2247 in front of it would give the same effect as the original LDRAW default matrix. I've wanted to pull out (...) (23 years ago, 7-Sep-01, to lugnet.cad.dev)
