Change to user view 3dsmax
Hi hugovet
The named views are predefined view, if you will navigate with a 3D navigation device the name of the view will switch to "User"

Hi hugovet
This problem is unfortunately 3DS Max-related. The only solution, which let you remain in a named view (for example Front) is to set the checkmark to the "Enable Object Movement" under "Options" and "Enable Dominant Axis Filter" under "Device Settings" in the "3Dx Settings" window (available under the "Utilities" - "3DxStudio" - "Control Panel").
3Dconnection already asked AutoDesk to change the functionality, but until now we have unfortunately no positive answer.

I got the same problem!
When ever you have touched the default view you can't draw in them except the top view. When resetting the view I can draw again, but then i lot my Pan/Tilt/Zoom position.
Moving the object is not a solution or even a workaround.. Then you coordinate all get screwed up.
Reading thru this forum I see that this a known and long excisting problem. Any light at the end of the tunnel for a solution (soon)?

I just got a SpaceExplorer today & am a bit unimpressed by this problem. I saw the earlier post about how its a deep and complicated problem... question is, is it possible to somehow disable pan/tilt/rotate when we're in the default max views rather than switching to user? I'd greatly prefer being able to use the max front/top/left views with pan & zoom only, then have full control when in user or perspective views.
Since one can easily set up keyboard shortcuts to go into those views & then pan or zoom, could it be possible to have say the T button go into the Max top view & then operate in it the way the SE does in acrobat?
