camera positioning

I'm working with a friend on some false perspective modelling - it is best seen from a specific viewpoint. Is the a way we can have a prim (like a poseball) that when they click it thier camera to set to a specific viewpoint - ie. set x,y,z location - zoom and/or magnification is not a problem but I want to avoid mouse view if possible.

I haven't used it myself yet, but llSetCameraParams() seems to do what you need.

Have a look at

and

thanks - will do

If the viewer is sitting on the object, you could also use llSetCameraEyeOffset and llSetCameraAtOffset. They're not as powerful as llSetCameraParams, but I think they'll work for what you're trying to do.
