For my application I want to have a view on a desk. The desk is seperated into different areas. The camera is only showing one area at once and when pushing the cursor left/right it should move to a predefined area. I'm using a simple Material2D with a desk texture for the desk. As it is bigger than the screen, I have positioned it like that



This would make 5 areas of 1.0f, 1.0f.

For the camera I have taken the FreeCamera, and initialize it like this:



The keyevents for left and right Cursor are triggering a camera movement, which will move the camera over the course of a given number of frames to another area. In the gameloop I call the materials as follows:



Now when I press the cursors I don't see any movement :(
But when I'm using a Grid.Draw() in between background.Draw() and camera.Update() I will see the movement of the camera, as the Grid is moving aside. There must be something I'm not considering, right? Any help would be appriciated. :)

We will provide more sample games and tutorials about such topics in the near future to make it more clear what to do for custom 2D/3D rendering. There are plenty of unit tests around, but they are just unit tests and might not cover what people are searching for.

I also just improved the comment of the draw method to make sure that it is rendered in 2D and unaffected when anything in 3D changes like the camera. A link to the Billboard class is also provided.
