Add orthographic projection about grid-apps HOT 5 CLOSED

This. I just started using Kiri:Moto today, and despite it's simplicity it is professionally looking slicer and CAM software, with smart algorithms behind nice web design. It is also pretty fast for a browser based app.

But first thing I noticed was a lack of ortographic (isometric?) projection. Especially when looking from top (both in cumulative layer view and section mode), I would like to have a simple view without perspective.

I'll see if I can make that work properly. In the past I had some challenges with orthographic and the three-js libraries I'm using. For now, use the "t" top hotkey or button for a top-down view. In slice mode you can switch to single layer view mode which may give you what you want.

Yeah, I am aware of that. It still does perspective projection, because even when viewing single layer they do have different z coordinates, and I can see a parallax changing as I change layers. :/

I have code in Kiri that can use the Ortho camera and have for a long time. It's not enabled and you can't switch between them on the fly. So I will look into what it takes to make that happen. Around line 540 in moto-space.js if you're curious.
