Are you using Vizard 3 or 4?
If you are using Vizard 4, then you can use the
vizact.spinTo action to animate the viewpoint to look towards a specific point. Example:
Code:
# Animate looking at specified point for half a second
lookAtAction = vizact.spinTo(point=(0,1.8,8),time=0.5,interpolate=vizact.easeOut)
# Add action to main view
viz.MainView.runAction(lookAtAction)
