Synopsis

viewCamera [flags] [camera]

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.
