Hello.
What are the camera settings that can be used to make these kinds of
perspectives ?
One sample here
<http://www.graphit-marker.com/blog-en/grilles-de-perspective/> @
Frontal perspective – 1 vanishing point
Not found help at
<https://www.povray.org/documentation/3.7.0/r3_4.html#r3_4_2_2> :(

I would say: the orthographic camera. I think paragraph 3.4.2.2.2 in the
help is fairly straightforward. Sorry, I have no time presently to be
more explicit and/or make a test.

[I've been away from the newsgroups for a long time; this is my first post in
quite awhile!]
I'm not a 'student' of perspective in drawing (although I like to sketch a lot),
but I would say that POV's regular perspective camera, in and of itself,
produces the kind of views you're looking for.
The 'perspective' camera doesn't introduce any curvilinear distortions, the way
a real camera lens would. (I think that's because it's essentially a 'pinhole
camera'.)
To my mind, the number of vanishing points in a scene seems to depend on the
camera's viewpoint (and maybe the particular subject matter in the scene?) Maybe
that's a VERY obvious statement, ha. If the camera is looking 'straight
ahead'--and all of the scene objects' surface planes are parallel or
orthogonal(?) to the camera plane-- then it looks like "1-point perspective" to
me. (That's my naive analysis, anyway.)
Here's a really simple scene to experiment with. The appearence of the rotated
cube looks like... 2-point perspective?
-------
#version 3.7;
global_settings {assumed_gamma 1.0}
default{finish{ambient 1 diffuse 0}}
camera {
perspective
location <1.7, 2.9, -4.2> // experiment with these settings
look_at <1.7, 2.9, 0>
right x*image_width/image_height
angle 80 // a very wide-angle view, just to show the results
}
background{rgb .1}
plane{y,0
no_shadow
pigment{
checker
rgb <1,0,0>
rgb 0
scale 4
}
}
box{0,2
pigment{checker scale .25}
rotate 45*y
translate 1.5*x
}
difference{
box{0,5 translate <-2.5,0,-2.5>}
box{0,4.5 translate <-2.25,.25,-3.0>}
pigment{
average
pigment_map{
[1 gradient z
frequency 2
color_map{
[.5 rgb .1]
[.5 rgb 1]
}
]
[1 gradient y
frequency 2
color_map{
[.5 rgb .1]
[.5 rgb 1]
}
]
}
translate -.001
}
translate <1,0,3>
}

.... AND all the horizontals and verticals in the scene remain so.

Mr W! My namesake!
Welcome back, old friend! :)
I hope that everything IRL is going ... better. You were absent, but not
forgotten.
I see that VA is going straight down the soil pipe, though VCDL and the general
citizenry is pushing back HARD. I hope everything goes well in Richmond on Jan
20.
It's very good to see you again.
Bill

Thanks for that.
On my side and after several tries, I have arrived at what i want. The
camera parameters are quite difficult to adjust.
camera {
location <36,5,0>
right x*image_width/image_height
look_at <0,5,0>
angle 45
}
All the frames are identical. The red dot is at infinity on -x axis
See result image in p.b.i.

Thanks Bill, much appreciated. I never forgot the ol' POV-Ray gang while I was
'away'. :-) Yeah, it's been long uphill climb, back to my usual self (whatever
that is!!) Financial problems and a 6-year relationship bust-up, plus some other
goodies-- all at the same time. :-/
I need to download the latest v3.8 alpha, to see what Clipka and the other
madmen have been cooking up since last... February! And I'm a little
out-of-practice with coding.

Hark. I hear an all too familiar story.
Sorry for your many and compounded woes. Here's hoping that you shake off all
the last of it and the doors that closed have freed you to walk through the ones
that will open.

Indeed. Our clipka went MIA a while back and no one seems to know where he is
or what he is up to. There have been some sporadic spurts of activity, some
inspirations, many roadblocks, and a few new faces as well as some visits from
folks who haven't been around in years.
Hang in there,
Bill
