@param name: The name camera bookmark to restore.  [str]
@param animate: If true, the camera smoothly moves to the new location. (default  = True). [True/False]

@example:
# Restores the bookmark with the given name.

setCameraPoI

setCameraPoI(self, pos):

Sets the camera point of interest in world coordinates. Camera positioned using PoI and the PoI distance.

@param pos: [x, y, z] position of the camera's point of interest . [sequence]

@example:
# set camera point of interest, preserving PoI distance
ce.get3DViews()[0].setCameraPoI([-1650,0,-3500])

setCameraPosition

setCameraPosition(self, x, y, z):

@param x: X coordinate.  [float]
@param y: Y coordinate.  [float]
@param z: Z coordinate.  [float]

@example:
# place camera at position (100,100,100)
views = ce.getObjectsFrom(ce.get3DViews(), ce.isViewport)
views[0].setCameraPosition(0, 200, 0)
