class alias_api.AlOrthographicCamera

Bases: AlCamera

Orthographic modeling cameras.

This class provides an interface to orthographic cameras, primarily so that one can manipulate the image planes on those cameras. In general, little can be done to ortho cameras, as they are more of a modeling tool than geometry. In that regard, this class contains little functionality.

It is possible to create a new orthographic camera through the create() call. The valid parameters to that call are defined in AlWindow.h. Note that creating an orthographic camera automatically creates the associated modeling window.
