A modelling-tool style orbit camera: the camera leaves the body to orbit, pan and zoom around a pivot, and frees the crosshair so it can move anywhere on screen.

About

Description

A Minecraft Fabric client mod that adds a modelling-tool style orbit camera: drag with the mouse to pan, orbit and zoom, and release the crosshair so it can move freely across the screen — letting you interact with any block on screen without turning the view. A dedicated zoom key magnifies the pointer area for precise work.
