Description
Setting the position of an ofEasyCam instance in ofSetup() does not work. What does work in testApp::setup() is calling ofEasyCam::setDistance(). When calling ofEasyCam::setPosition() in for example testApp::draw() does work.

Research direction
Start by reproducing the issue with ofEasyCam::setPosition() in testApp::setup(), then compare it with the working calls in testApp::draw() and testApp::setup(). Trace the ofEasyCam initialization and positioning path to identify why setup-time positioning is ignored; done means setPosition() works from setup() as setDistance() does.
