I'm want to make a 360 degree scene for a snapcamera filter to use on zoom calls. But my users will be running the filter on desktops where there's no ability to tilt or rotate the camera. Is there a way to make the "look around" feature a manual effect? Like allowing the mouse to rotate the scene using their mouse?
What system are you using?
Have you downloaded the latest version of Lens Studio?
Is this issue causing Lens Studio to crash?

Please enter a brief description of your issue:
Unfortunately, it's likely due to the operating system or hardware you're using – since they don't meet the system requirements for Lens Studio.
Still, we hear you loud and clear, and are logging the issue in case there's ever a workaround we can provide!
Minimum Requirements
Operating System: Windows 10 (64 bit); MacOS 10.11+
Hardware: Minimum of Intel Core i3 2.5Ghz or AMD Phenom II 2.6Ghz with 4 GB RAM; Intel HD Graphics 4000 / Nvidia GeForce 710 / AMD Radeon HD 6450 or better; screen resolution of 1280x768 or higher
Keep an eye out for a followup email from us. We may have a couple more questions for you, or we might already have a solution to offer.
Happy creating!
You could parent your scene to the camera, so it's fixed in place, then add a script that tracks touchstart/move/end to let people touch/click and drag to rotate the scene around the camera.
Can the mouse even interact in Snap Camera?
yes, I've been able to cue visual effects that use the tap to initiate script in snap camera. I'm just sad that snap camera doesn't let you use audio effects too :(
Weird I was working on a solution to this not long ago. I just finished up this script that works for that
https://github.com/FrozenAtlas/OLC-Repo/blob/master/Scripts/First%20Person%20Touch%20Control.js
Basically put your camera inside your 3D world or whatever then add the script and add the camera to the script. Touch movements on the camera feed will allow you to look around. can also adjust clamp angle and sensitivity inside the script.
(Note script was ported from unity scripts, that are linked in a comment in the script. Not entirely my doing)
Brandon you are the best! Thank you so much!
Their spec is higher to capture the full screen. I have tested it after reading the manuals on this blog.
