You mention that setting the camera attributs should be easy. Since I
have never seen neither Alias Sketch, Topas or the new 3D Studio, I can't
figure out how this could be done "easily". What does the algorythm do?
How would it work? What would it search for?
I am interested because I am working on a project right now that will
have a lot of this. Although it will be done in Softimage, it could be
an interesting thing to program (for both Softimage and LW).
