Linking VR Cameras for VR Scene - Bug?

Can somebody please verify if this a bug...

I am trying to create a "VR Scene" with linked VR Cameras.

By default, multiple VR Cameras are not linked (even when they are in the same path). According to the User Guide you need to link the Cameras in order to create a "VR Scene"... In order to link the Cameras you should be able to click and drag a connection or even click and drag to create a new linked Camera. This does NOT WORK (both AC9 and AC10).

I followed the User Guide instructions and tried everything that I could think of to link these %$&#*@ Cameras. Is there anyone out there that has successfully created a "VR Scene" (not "VR Panorama") in AC9 or AC10?

It works fine for me in 9. In 10, I get a beep, and empty 3D window, and that's it. Like an error, but nothing in the report. No files generated. Tried internal and LW. Weird, I know a made a small VR scene in 10 about 3 months ago.

I had no trouble actually linking the cameras, though. Camera tool active, click on the center of one, then the center of another. Mouse up or down doesn't matter. If you click on a camera and then in empty space, you get a new camera and a link.

James,

Thanks for the reply. I now realize what I was doing wrong... I was selecting the camera and/or cameras prior to linking which was not letting me link. So I can chalk that up to user error . It's been so long since I played with the VR tools. Thanks again.
