@JohnSumskas hi, what is the https://github.com/kivy/kivy3/blob/development/examples/rotate_cam.py example supposed to demonstrate?

Its meant to be a simple example of the Orbit Control Widget. I.E being able to orbit and move around an object using the right and left click buttons or touch controls.

So i better rename it to orbit.py or similar?

This leads me to another question. The several versions of ObjectTrackball widgets in the examples. Are these the predecessors of the OrbitControlWidget?

Yes that is correct. But if I recall, Object trackball operated differently. Things got a bit messy on my side when this was a private repo.

Yes, I'd agree, renaming it to orbit.py would be more appropriate.
