0006433: Camera -> Center of Rotation
In my use of paraview I commonly want to get a view of the data from a particular point. Currently we can choose the center of rotation using a pick, but then we have to manually copy the location over to the camera settings. I request the addition of a button to the camera dialog to place the camera at the current center of rotation. Then the pick can be followed by use of that button to get a view of data from any specific point quickly.
No tags attached.

I think I agree with Dave. Please post this to user voice. Further, do you have any ideas for placing the camera places that are not on the surface of the object?
