Title: Jumping Pivot
Post by: Woolfy on March 18, 2017, 05:00:12 am

Hi,

i have a problem regarding viewport navigation.
For example if i select object, pivot is in the center of this object.

If i pan it to the view border and it is out from the screen, pivot point jumps to somewhere in the space( middle of the scene?) and now im rotating around this position.see screen 1

If object appears on the screen again, pivor jumps to it back.. see screen 2

Can i turn this feature off, so pivot position stay allways on object? Thanks!

This is a UX feature. Physical position of object's pivot remains in the same place, but when the object goes off screen, the manipulator is moved to the centre of the screen for user convenience. This way you don't have to see the object to transform it.
