track(
[camera]
, [down=linear], [left=linear], [right=linear], [up=linear])
Note: Strings representing object names and arguments must be separated by commas. This is not depicted in the synopsis.
track is undoable, queryable, and editable.
The track command translates a camera horizontally or vertically
in the world space. The viewing-direction and up-direction of the
camera are not altered. There is no translation in the viewing
direction.
The track command can be applied to either a perspective or an
orthographic camera.
When no camera name is supplied, this command is applied to the
camera in the active view.
