Firstly I apologize if this has already been mentioned:)


When moving round with the Eye move or rotate in the perspective window the directions in which you move your mouse change.

i.e - you move your mouse right and the eye moves left. Is this just a general problem or what because it is really annoying.:(

Not sure of the problem Stoker-when you move your mouse to the right it is like looking around to the right therefore the grid rotates to the left to accomodate your view. Same in player......:confused:


Answer's in the question-you are moving your 'eye' and therefore your point of view not physically moving the plane. If something else is happening for you then I cannot help.

Are you switching between the coordinate systems inadvertently?
Screen acts differently than Object which works differently than World...
This will affect how the Eye moves around- can't say I've ever seen it be reversed ... look in your mouse and make sure the ball in there isn't upside down or something. ;^)

I understand what Stoker means..when you use "eye move" move mouse to the right in any coord system and your object[s] move in the opposite direction, left .. I would rather it be the other way around too, but it's not a bug..then it would match "object move".. :confused:

it might actually be possible to switCh them around for the player..haven't tried yet:D

funny I just noticed in the player the "camera move tool" the equal to model "eye move" ..move mouse left and the world and object move left..which is opposite to model..

no nothing like that Spacekdet, but the two worlds are not a match set....

Stoker..you can change the direction of world rotation in relation to mouse left, right movement with the view widget in the player..by going into the link editor and doing some tweaking....:)

at the moment I don't know if the icon version "camera rotate tool" can be alter thought..
