      When the discussion about this plugin started I thought, hmm, interesting idea but don't think I would use it much. Then when you released the plugin I thought, Ok I'll try it but I hope he's made it easy to turn off as I'm certain I'll only use it occasionally.

      Now that I have it and have used it for a day or so I can't think why I would turn it off and don't understand why it isn't a normal feature. Bloody Brilliant, thanks again.

          it's running smoothly in your video (on your machine) but it doesn't in my sketchup.. when it reaches the edge, it goes reverse and the go forward.. I hope you can try it on another machine please, or try to add more plugins in the Main UserInterface to your sketchup and test it again.

          thanks.

            what happened with me (each time I switch over the edge) is actually similar to what happened at 0:35 in your video.

              Yes, this is what I meant by:

              Known issues:

              • The view flashes sometimes.

              The length of this "flash" is heavily dependent on the model's complexity. The more complex the model, the more you're gonna experience this issue. For now, I can only advise you to disable it when working on heavy models.

              I found a solution, but it resets the center of rotation. And as you know, the center of rotation depends on the location of the mouse when you activate the pan/orbit tool. So this leads to some really weird things depending on the geometry configuration in the view.
              I don't think this is a good solution...

              I'll keep searching for a solution.

                The Orbit tool does it naturally sometimes, too.

                        Hello,

                          I didn't notice this plugin before, very handy.

                          But… I notice a "jump" when the cursor goes from a side to the other, so not a really 360° pan.

                          OSX 10.8.5, SU 15.

                          By the way, I can deal with that. Thanks.

                            I remember having experienced this as well, but in SU2016 (Windows) it works as intended for me. For you it seems to reset the view when the cursor jumps, so it is not really useful as you cannot pan more than without the plugin.

                                Yeah, it doesn't work in SU 2017. Any fix?

                                  Hello,
                                  Is it possible to paste the RBZ installer file here, as an attachment to a post?
                                  For some reason, I cannot download it from the Plugin Store. Getting various errors from my browser.

                                    "Various errors" is not helpful. Be specific or don't mention errors at all.

                                    I sent you the file via your private message request. As I told you in that message, this plugin hasn't been updated since 2014. If you read this thread you will see that it didn't work in SU2017. There's no reason to expect that it will work in SU2020.

                                      For others who come along, based on the comments in Einstein's message to me, the "errors" appear to be due to his settings in Firefox. Nothing wrong with the extension file or the download file.
