Description

There are several camera-related issues (with slightly some parts in common with this one) but anyway…This one may generalize couple of them.

It would be great to be able to serialize the "View" (including camera position/look-at) and "Appearance" stuff in order to be able to load/save settings from the UI or load one from the command line.

My main use case would be to load/save camera settings but this could be part of a more generic serialization feature for these kinds of parameters.

Research direction

Start by locating the View and Appearance implementations and the existing UI or command-line entry points for camera settings. Clarify the serialization scope, including camera position/look-at and appearance values; done should allow these settings to be saved and loaded.
