Description
This PR introduces an option to control the camera viewport using the keyboard.
Previously, creating a

, overriding user input. This made viewing the simulation environment difficult.To address this, a new
register_keyboard_control
option is added toViewerCfg
. When enabled, the user can navigate the camera with numpad shortcuts (full keybinding list is provided below).Example usage:
