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.
