I'm developing a product in which the pointer is locked during the camera update when the first-person view is activated.
On the GIF, the pointer does not move because it is locked. It lets you update the camera without moving the pointer and risking losing it in a corner of the screen.
To lock the pointer, I use the Pointer Lock WebAPI.
Issue: The mouse pan/rotate/dolly handler uses the pointer canvas position to update the camera control state but when the pointer is locked, the pointer does not move.
Solution : This PR check if the pointer is locked with
document.pointerLockElement
and if so, theMouseEvent<"mousemove">
movementX
andmovementY
properties are used instead of the real pointer canvas position.
