The mouse controls don't support moving side-to-side, only rotation and
zoom about the scene's center.  So, you need to adjust scene.center (a
vector) to the new center in your program.  Doing this in a series of
small steps will give the impression of continuous motion.  Using a
rate(30) will approximate the same frame rate as the rendering loop.
