HI,

here is the code to define a new camera.

var camera = new BABYLON.ArcRotateCamera(“Camera”, -Math.PI / 2, 0, 500, BABYLON.Vector3.Zero(), scene);

I would like to know how to disable the camera rotation input but preserve the panning input. Because I don’t allow user to rotate the scene. Thanks!
