Screen setup

Support Basics & Interface

I was reading the thread by malefico on ‘Screens and Scenes’, and it reminded me of a quirk that I had some problems with a while back.

Is there a way that when you change screens, that the view in the 3DWindow would reatain the same orientation as was the case for the 3DWindow in the previous screen layout?

For example: I adjust the view in the 3Dwindow to a certain orientation, then I would like to access an IPO window, so I change the screen, but the 3DWindow there will always come up in a default Top view instead of the way I had oriented it in the previous screen with the single 3DWindow. Is there some way to change this?

Not possible, since all windows are independant from one another. A copy/paste viewport orientation would be a nice addition though.

Thanks theeth, that’s what I thought.

Perhaps something like the ‘thumb tack’ icon might work here.

For Example:

You change the top view to your custom oriented view in a screen that has a single 3DWindow, press a thumb tack icon, then any screen that you switch to that has a top view, will display the custom oriented view instead.
