things about speed + mouse wheel direction + global options

I've been trying few visualize program but VMD is the best one IMO, in term off rotating molecule, mouse sensitivity.

Most of other programs give me a feeling of 'heavy' movement.

So what do you think about change the default values for:

  • controls.rotateSpeed = 2.0 (instead of 0.4)
  • controls.zoomSpeed = 1.8 (instead of 1.2)
  • this.camera_z = +150 (instead of -150): This mouse direction is similar to VMD. It's more common to zoom in than zoom out, moving the wheel forward (to screen) is much easier. So I guess VMD does opposite way compared to others. But I I like VMD's one.

Mouse sensitivity sounds good esp. when using static viewing, but I'd rather keep the wheel in the most "common" direction, as user prefer what it's familiar to them

seems reasonable. May be chemview can have global options so users can change them? currently I only know how to update via js files.

Sounds pretty good
