Descripción
Hi, thanks for this great lib !
- The recent feature that allows to select a focus point with
ctr+shift+left clickis very convenient. - The trackball follows the rule of path invariance which is great too !
However, I'd like to suggest other features that could improve the ergonomy when carefully inspecting a scene.
Rotate
Current trackball seems to be an azimuth/elevation control which is fine, but disallows roll completely. This "turntable" behavior might be desired, but a more standard approach is to use an azimuth/elevation behavior in the center of the viewport fading to a more roll-permissive behavior further from the center. This nice blog post from Scott Shambaugh summarizes different trackball implementations, including the standard OpenGL one.
Zoom
The default mouse scroll zoom should be relative (without pressing shift+ctrl). The absolute zoom is bad because zooming is supposed to give an impression of scaling things. When far from the scene, it is painfully slow, and way too sensitive near an object's surface.
Pan
Currently, panning the camera does not move the focus point which creates a incomfortable setup if the user decide to rotate again. I suggest to also translate the focus point by a same amount to prevent that. Also, the panning is absolute thus suffers from the same issues of the absolute zoom. I recommend to make it proportional to the distance between the eye and the focus point.
Lastly, I find the focus point picking so convenient I think it should be more accessible (maybe double click like in Meshlab ?)
Those are only suggestions of course.

Línea de trabajo
Comienza rastreando el manejo existente de la entrada de trackball, zoom, pan y punto de enfoque descrito en el issue. Compara el comportamiento actual con las referencias de trackball enlazadas y define decisiones separadas y comprobables para la rotación, el zoom relativo, el desplazamiento proporcional, el movimiento del punto de enfoque y la activación del punto de enfoque antes de implementar nada.
