Self-centering zoom axis and custom FOV in the middle tutorial

[virgo47]

Hi guys!

It was bothering me for some time that I had my default view set, but my zoom axis cradle/paddles always centered on different FOV. So I decided to explore the topic and make it into a video:

It discusses zooming, setting the default view, tweaking the zoom axis, going over both SnapViews.lua and input config files to finally get the result I wanted.

TL;DR version would be:

• zoom axis to slider, enable custom user curve (and probably also invert)
• find the right value for the middle point depending on your FOV (there is an equation in the video)
• fix the rest of the values to make the curve nice
• check the cradle middle position and FOV there, and now resave your default view with this FOV for zero deviance and total satisfaction.

I hope you will find it informative and useful.
