Need to NOT recreate the 3D view every time we switch away
I'm in the 3D view, I've position my viewpoint somewhere, I look at a geolocation or image asset, I switch back, and the view is completely reset.
I understand why this is happening: we're recreating the whole panel. This is bad (it was bad as a performance thing, but it's terrible that really hammers the UX)
Need to move the entire 3D canvas into a separate canvas from the one created by React, and then add this canvas to the react canvas.
Is this actually urgent? Are you having speed issues? I ask because it may require some deep changes that I'd rather not do while the students are using the tool.
It would be less urgent if scene navigation and "recenter" worked properly. But right now, if I look away from the scene and come back, my view is reset, and navigation back to it is hard/impossible.
I fixed the view reset. Now it will preserve the orbit control settings
Since the view position is being preserved I'm marking this not urgent anymore. I'm keeping it around for the longer term performance issue.
Ok. It will be important soon — as soon as we run this on a desktop that actually supports WebXR, it’s going to try opening WebXR every time … god knows what that will do.
