### My Question

I visualize a pointcloud using `SceneWidget()` first using Perspective projection and then switch to Orthographic projection.

Perspective:

Orthographic:

If you look at the angle between the grid axes, you can see that its not a right angle. What might be reason for this?

Note: I use
`scene.camera.look_at(np.array([-320, -242, 600]), np.array([-800, -350, 800]), np.array([0, -1, 0])) #Center, Eye, Up` to change the camera position
