SIMCONNECT_DATA

SIMCONNECT_DATA_CAMERA

The SIMCONNECT_DATA_CAMERA structure is a response containing data on the current camera.

Syntax

SIMCONNECT_STRUCT SIMCONNECT_DATA_CAMERA
{
    SIMCONNECT_DATA_XYZ Position;
    SIMCONNECT_POSITION_REFERENTIAL PositionReferential;
    DWORD PositionReferentialObjectId;
    SIMCONNECT_DATA_XYZ TargetedPos;
    SIMCONNECT_DATA_PBH Pbh;
    SIMCONNECT_POSITION_REFERENTIAL RotationReferential;
    DWORD RotationReferentialObjectId;
    double Fov;
};

Members

Member	Description
`Position`	The camera position expressed as a `SIMCONNECT_DATA_XYZ` struct. The units and values returned will depend of the selected `Referential`.
`PositionReferential`	The reference used to define the `position` value. One of the following: SimObject - The position is an offset from the simobject position (expressed in meters). SimObject Datum - The position is an offset from the simobject Datum Reference Point (expressed in meters). Eyepoint - The position is an offset from the aircraft pilot eyepoint (expressed in meters). World - The position is expressed using latitude, longitude, and altitude.
`PositionReferentialObjectId`	Ignored if is `positionReferential` set to World. The object Id of the simobject that will be used to set position by SimObject, SimObject Datum and Eyepoint referential. Set to 0 to focus user's aircraft. If the object Id is invalid, user's aircraft will be used instead.
`TargetedPos`	A 3 value vector (x, y, z) defining the "target" position for the camera. This is used to define a "look at" point for the camera direction/orientation. The units and values returned will depend of the selected `Referential`. Note that if you set a target position, it will override any values given for `Pbh`.
`Pbh`	The camera pitch, bank, and heading, expressed as a `SIMCONNECT_DATA_PBH` struct. Note when setting values, if `TargetedPos` is set, it will override the values given here.
`RotationReferential`	The reference used to define the `pbh` and `targetedPosition` values. One of the following: SimObject - The position is an offset from the simobject position (expressed in meters). SimObject Datum - The position is an offset from the simobject Datum Reference Point (expressed in meters). Eyepoint - The position is an offset from the aircraft pilot eyepoint (expressed in meters). World - The position is expressed using latitude, longitude, and altitude.
`RotationReferentialObjectId`	Ignored if is `rotationReferential` set to World. The object Id of the simobject that will be used to set rotation by SimObject, SimObject Datum and Eyepoint referential. Set to 0 to focus user's aircraft. If the object Id is invalid, user's aircraft will be used instead.
`Fov`	The camera field of view, in radians.

Remarks

This struct will be included in the SIMCONNECT_RECV_CAMERA_DATA struct as a response to to the SimConnect_CameraGet function.
