Forked from https://github.com/supermedium/superframe/tree/master/components/orbit-controls. Added parameters rotationA, rotationB, dampingFactorRotation to add extra rotation coming from a mobile device's rotation- orientation change
Orbit controls for A-Frame.
Scene above built in Supercraft by Robert Karpinski (@riskieee).
Automatically toggles look-controls on and off when entering and exiting VR.
Great for using as a viewer, better and easier than using WASD + mouse-drag, or being stuck in the same position on mobile.
The other A-Frame orbit controls components were weird since they fully ported
the THREE.OrbitControls logic into a component. This component just straight
up uses THREE.OrbitControls in a clean and performant way.
Same API as
THREE.OrbitControls,
supports all the properties.
| Property | Description | Default Value |
|---|---|---|
| autoRotate | Set to true to automatically rotate around the target. | false |
| autoRotateSpeed | How fast to rotate around the target. | 2 (30 seconds per rotation at 60fps) |
| dampingFactor | Damping inertia if enableDamping. |
0.1 |
| enabled | Whether enabled. | true |
| enableDamping | Set to true to enable damping (inertia), which can be used to give a sense of weight to the controls. | true |
| enableKeys | Enable arrow keys. | true |
| enablePan | Enable panning (i.e., right click drag or three finger drag). | true |
| enableRotate | Enable rotation (i.e., left click drag or single finger drag). Use Azimuth angles to constrain to single axis. | true |
| enableZoom | Enable zoom (i.e., scroll or pinch). | true |
| initialPosition | Initial position of the camera. Set this rather than position. |
0 0 0 |
| keyPanSpeed | How fast to pan the camera when the keyboard is used. Default is 7.0 pixels per keypress. | 7 (pixels per keypress) |
| minAzimuthAngle | How far you can orbit horizontally, lower limit. From -180 to 180 degrees. | Infinity (no limit) |
| maxAzimuthAngle | How far you can orbit horizontally, upper limit. From -180 to 180 degrees. | Infinity (no limit) |
| maxDistance | How far you can dolly out. | Infinity |
| maxPolarAngle | How far you can orbit vertically, upper limit. Range is 0 to 180 degrees. | 90 |
| minDistance | How far you can dolly in. | 0 |
| minPolarAngle | How far you can orbit vertically, lower limit. Range is 0 to 180 degrees. | 0 |
| minZoom | How far you can zoom in (OrthographicCamera only). | 0 |
| panSpeed | Speed of panning. | 1 |
| rotateSpeed | Speed of rotation. | 1 |
| screenSpacePanning | Defines how the camera's position is translated when panning. If true, the camera pans in screen space. Otherwise, the camera pans in the plane orthogonal to the camera's up direction. | false |
| target | Focus point of controls. look-at vector. | 0 0 0 |
| zoomSpeed | Speed of zooming / dollying. | 1 |
| rotationA | rotation on A angle. | 1 |
| rotationB | rotation on B angle. | 1 |
| dampingFactorRotation | Damping inertia for rotationA and rotationB | 1 |
