Hi I think that this is caused by the fact that the original MLCAD model is not centered in the virtual space. If you move it so that it's center is at 0,0,0, the camera will rotate around it. /Not 100% sure but I did replicate the above using a (...) (21 years ago, 29-Jan-04, to lugnet.cad.ray, FTX)
