ViewCenter
ViewCenter
is an option for Graphics3D and related functions which gives the scaled coordinates of the point which should appear at the center of the final image.
- With the default setting ViewCenter->Automatic, the whole bounding box is centered in the final image.
- ViewCenter->Automatic is equivalent to ViewCenter->{1/2, 1/2, 1/2}, which places the center of the three-dimensional bounding box at the center of the final image.
- The setting for ViewCenter is given in scaled coordinates, which run from 0 to 1 across each dimension of the bounding box.
- ViewCenter->{{x, y, z}, {px, py}} makes the 3D point with scaled coordinates
appear at scaled coordinate position 
in the final 2D image.
- The default is ViewCenter->{{x, y, z}, ImageScaled[{1, 1}/2]}.
- In a notebook front end, rotating a 3D object by dragging the mouse does not change the setting for ViewCenter. Panning changes the second element in the ViewCenter list.
- Explicit settings for ViewVector override settings of the form ViewCenter->{x, y, z}.
- Explicit settings for ViewMatrix always override settings for ViewCenter.
Place the center of the objects at the center of the final image:
| Out[1]= |  |
Place the top-right corner of the objects at the center of the final image:
| Out[1]= |  |
Use the ViewCenter->{vc, vp} to specify that the 3D point vc is mapped to the 2D point vp:
| Out[2]= |  |
