I'm using LPub 2.2.0.0

Why does LPub generate a render with the correct camera angle when I do
a "Complete Assembly" but not when I generate "Instruction Images".

In this case the camera angle is supposed to be globe, lattitude: 30,
longitude: 45, orthographic.

This has been bothering me for some time.  There must be something
simple I'm missing.

Thanks in advance for help.

Hi Jon,
  This is not very clean in LPub, but the Globe Camera stuff does not affect
building instructions.

  One thing LEGO does in their building instructions is turn the model, to make
the backside of the model visible.  MLCad provides ROTSTEP meta-commands to let
us rotate the model while creating building instructions.

  So what you want to do is to use ROTSTEP.
