I'd like to put the 3d view off-centered. Say my game screen is 800x600 and I want it at 700x500, offset towards the bottom-left corner. How would I do this? The closest thing I see is SetCameraOffCenter, but it looks like that is for the view frustum and not actually displaying the result on the screen. Thanks

SetCameraPosition?
SetViewOffset?

I'll give SetViewOffset a try. SetCameraPosition would still render from the perspective of the center of the screen being the center of the camera even if I offset the position in the world I think.

SetViewOffset only moved 2D elements when I tried it. SetCameraPosition sortof worked but only if I didn't care about depth of objects lining up.

Anyone have other ideas?

Turns out SetCameraOffCenter and SetCameraBounds were what I needed, but without an example I wasn't sure the values I needed to put in. I was using world coords (ie -200 to 200) when what I needed to do was use normalized values per the projection matrix (so for example -0.72 to 1). Hopefully that helps someone else
