Oddness in 3D View

Anonymous
Not applicable
Hello.

My first post. I have been sing Archicad for a couple of days now, it's all making perfect sense apart from ther 3D viewports. I come from Maya and Silo so navigation in Archicad in somewhat new to me. Today, for no reason I can fathom, my viewport set itself to this:



This is the flat roof of an apartment building. The view has set itself 90 on it's side and wont allow me to frame anyhting up. Is there a way to reset the 3D viewport? Also, how can I stop the camera rotating around random origin's? One minute the building rotates fine, the next if flings off the screen!

Thanks for the help.

Andrew.

Sorry, I assume you don't like Piranesi? For some things, the good old watercolour look does the trick well. If I need to do anything else I'd use what I know, Maya, Mental Ray and Renderman.
