      Is it only me, or is the "lock camera" feature of the ACT broken?
      Every time i have a saved ACT-scene selected and zoom/pan/orbit the camera position gets adjusted. No matter if the camera is locked or not.
      Why does a saved scene gets adusted at all?

      My solution for now is to create a normal scene for evey ACT-scene which i select before i move change view... ๐Ÿ˜’

      And another question:
      Is it possible to avoid these stupid huge FOV-Volumes and lines? They always produce a viewport clipping. For now i delete the lines and remodel the volume for every new camera but this is quite annoying. ๐Ÿ˜’

        @numerobis:
        I hesitate to ask this, since I do not have Pro or Advanced Camera Tools, but: FOV volumes. Would that be another term for camera frustum? If so, is there an Enable/Disable option for this in each camera scene? Or could the missing camera lock feature be related to this?

        I take the slow, deliberate approach in my aimless wandering.

          Yes i meant the frustum.
          No, you can only toggle the layers for "Camera_FOV_Volume" and "Camera_FOV_Lines".
          But switching these off will not avoid the clipping problems - like any large geometry in sketchup.

          But i have found another solution now to avoid these problems. I use the ACT-camera only to set up the scene and then i add a normal scene with the same settings and delete the ACT scene... ๐Ÿ˜† ๐Ÿ˜’
