Hi Robert, In other words from now when we want a fixed projection matrix we need to make two calls: camera-setComputeNearFarMode( osg::Camera::DO_NOT_COMPUTE_NEAR_FAR ); camera-setInheritanceMask( camera-getInheritanceMask() ~osg::Camera::COMPUTE_NEAR_FAR_MODE ); If we don't

Hi Brian, It looks like you'll need to create a custom cull visitor that stores the desired eye point and overrides the CullVisitor::getViewPoint method to return the stored eye point instead of the CullStack view point. Thats sounds like it something I might be able to do ;-). Do you know if
