Terrific! This is great to know.
I first tried saving and restoring the entire set from par3d but this
produced some changes (eg bg) and also one must call par3d with
no.readonly=TRUE. Clearly this is the way to go if one has changed a variety
of rgl properties. But if one has only used the mouse to rotate/scale I
discovered (by looking at the documentation of view3d) that I believe that
all one needs are userMatrix, FOV, and zoom:
## create an rgl plot, interact with it, then:
snap <- par3d( c("userMatrix", "FOV", "zoom") )
## create a new rgl plot, apply the same transformation:
par3d( snap )
This can also be used to 'snap' the current view during an interactive
session and restore it later during that same session, which could be quite
useful.
To save typing, a (trivial) pair of functions to encapsulate this:
snap.view <- function() par3d( c("userMatrix", "FOV", "zoom") )
restore.view <- function( snap) par3d( snap )
