Description

Adding a camera to an embedded A-Frame scene incorrectly renders the camera's aspect ratio.

The camera's aspect ratio can be fixed by manipulating the window via an action such as resize, open console etc...

  • A-Frame Version: 0.7.0
  • Platform / Device: PC Windows
  • Reproducible Code Snippet or URL:
    I simulated this by adding a camera to a loaded scene a few seconds after it loads.

Research direction

Start with the linked Glitch reproduction and reproduce adding a camera several seconds after the embedded scene loads. Compare the camera aspect ratio before and after a resize or console interaction; the issue is done when the dynamically added camera renders with the correct aspect ratio without that manual trigger.
