Re: [Visualpython-users] Bug: scene.mouse.camera init

[Anders P. <an...@gm...>]

Are you thinking about scene.mouse.pos? That makes more sense for upper left
corner.
scene.mouse.camera is the position of the camera (right?) and only changes
when the user right-drags in the scene.

I agree that feature requests are not a priority at the moment.
