Maya perspective camera location issues

Post by metalglasses »

When I look through the perspective viewport in about 2-5 minutes, the little blue thing that indicates the camera pivot point would shift way off. I would remedy this by restarting maya and repeat process. I have updated maya and 3dconnextion drivers and still having this issue. Has anyone solved this?

Hello metalglasses -

With the Rotation Center option 'Auto' enabled, as the view of the model changes the software is trying to calculate the visual center. When that is not creating the behavior you want, you can turn it off in the 3Dconnexion Properties options.

Open 3Dconnexion Properties to Advanced. Under 'Rotation Center' turn off 'Auto' and choose 'Use selected item'. That allows you to pick the rotation center rather than having it change with the model view.
