How do you disable the automatic pitch "feature" of Google Earth? If you point the camera down, it automatically pitches back to the horizon. Very annoying.

Having Target Camera Mode available in Inventor would be nice though. Presumably this has to be implemented by Inventor. Any chance of harassing the developers about this?

Oh, wait. I understand what is going on now. For some reason there was some weird coordinate reset going on in my brain, probably due to being new to this kind of input. I thought the 3d mouse was controlling the object in object space instead of screen space, but the exact opposite is true! Fascina...

UtaSH, did you try this when viewing the model from the top?

With the default settings the object still rotates in object space rather then screen space.

Inventor does not have an option for "Target Camera Mode", but 3ds Max has. Is this application specific, or a bug?

Fred, are you sure this works in Inventor? I can't find those options either. I think you mix it up with Revit.

Thanks for the link but the instructions are in fact not valid for Inventor. I tried it but like the user JoeShmoe, the suggested options are nowhere to be found. I think Fred mixes up Revit with Inventor.

Or if the object rotation axis are always aligned with the camera plane, that would be even better. The settings for Inventor seem to be very sparse...

I am glad you understand the issue. Now we can start finding a solution :-) By the way, I am surprised no one else brought up this issue before, or at least I couldn't find any other complaints. Maybe I am the only one sometimes working on the top of a model :-/ I suppose the only way to solve it is...

Thanks for your reply but I am afraid you misunderstand. Here is another bug report where I attempt to make the point again. Open the model viewer with the turbine engine example. Rotate the model so the turbine is viewed from above. Roll the model. Note that the model doesn't roll on the expected a...

I just received my SpaceNavigator but I have discovered an issue which I can't solve. This "bug/funny feature" are even present in the demo apps provided. To see what I mean, go to the trainer, and click on Roll. Try it out. Works as expected. Now select All Active and tilt the view so the...
