Question

How to stop Creo from reorienting the view when switching sections

When switching sections in a model or assy, the screen view reorients to what seems like a random position.

I then have to spend time and thought adjusting the view to get back to where I was. Very tiresome.

Can't find anywhere to control it so that the view stays put.

Anyone know how?

Thanks!

Matt,

Does Gary's response answer your question?

No -  it seems to be answering a different question than I asked.

Do you have any suggestions?

Do you mean section views?  How are you switching?  Right click in model tree and clicking activate?  My model does not re-orient when doing so.

I usually switch sections within the View Manager, but I just checked the tree method and behavior is the same.

By the way, I'm not sure I gave a perfectly clear description of the issue (partly because it seems inconsistent). One thing I just noticed when checking the tree method is that it didn't reorient the model, it reoriented the view (moves the part on the screen).

So this is a problem mostly when zoomed way in and area i am working on suddenly disappears from the center of the screen and I have to go find it again. This happens even when  the the 2 sections pass through the same point.

Matt,

I can now duplicate your issue.  I am not sure there is a solution to this, I looked through all the config options.  If I find one I will let you know.
