Detailed Description

The QOrbitCameraController class allows controlling the scene camera along orbital path.

The controls are:

Right mouse buttonWhile the right mouse button is pressed, mouse movement along x-axis pans the camera around the camera view center and movement along y-axis tilts it around the camera view center.
Both left and right mouse buttonWhile both the left and the right mouse button are pressed, mouse movement along y-axis zooms the camera in and out without changing the view center.
Mouse scroll wheelZooms the camera in and out without changing the view center.
Arrow keysMove the camera vertically and horizontally relative to camera viewport.

Shift keyChanges the behavior of the up and down arrow keys to zoom the camera in and out without changing the view center. The other movement keys are disabled.
Alt keyChanges the behovior of the arrow keys to pan and tilt the camera around the view center. Disables the page up and page down keys.
EscapeMoves the camera so that entire scene is visible in the camera viewport.
