Hello, I’m trying to render a preview of a second free cam that the user can control. At first I was looking into the Viewport Class, but there are a couple of issues I’m running up against. First, there doesn’t seem to be a way to add a background so that you don’t see the meshes inside the other…

Ok, I see it, you can set which camera you want to use for rendering the utility layer, because by default it will use the last active camera: Minimap style camera w/ Viewport | Babylon.js Playground (babylonjs.com)

I’m not too sure what you want to achieve exactly. Do you want to have controls on the minimap?
