Panning and scaling changes pivot point

[ozRocker]

I notice if I pan, rotate a bit, then scale and do that whole sequence a few times, the pivot point starts to shift which is noticeable when rotating.  Is there a way to prevent the pivot point moving?  

I'm trying it out here www.punkoffice.com/scan/cat_kasey

(use right-click to pan)

I think you are going to have to prevent the camera from tilting to avoid this from happening.

Yikes! I only just noticed that :/  yeh, if I tilt and pan the pivot goes way off.  I assume tilt means the camera's beta.  I can't turn that off though 'cos I want the user to be able to see the top and bottom of the model.  Are there some tricky transformations I can do to workaround this?

I made a playground with some objects here: http://www.babylonjs-playground.com/#16Y5X1#0

(use CTRL + LEFT MOUSE BUTTON to pan)

It might not be the best fix, but it's simple:
