Hi Timothy R. Cook, you recently wrote in moray.win:

Hmmm. I'm not sure. If you set up the group to display the HUD stuff
and then rotate it about X and Z only, it should work. This means no
Roll of the camera, though. And you can't rotate through the zenith
and expect the picture to be upside down....

I suggest simply experimenting and trying it out. The camera will
always be positioned at the place where the objects land up at, but
will be parallel to the Z plane, i.e. no roll.
