viewCamera [-move
name] [-sideView] [-topView] [camera]
viewCamera is undoable, NOT queryable, and NOT
editable.
The viewCamera command is used to position a camera to look
directly at the side or top of another camera. This is primarily
useful for the user when he or she is setting depth-of-field and
clipping planes, if they are being used. The default behaviour: If
no other flags are specified, the camera in the active panel is
moved and the -t is presumed. If there is a camera selected, it is
used as the target camera.
