When editing an object in the OPTIONS menu, we have the preview window that we can view the object in plan / elevation / 3D. I have never used this window to rotate my object in the project, however I do use it regularly to rotate the object and inspect the changes I am making to it while in this menu.
The issue is that rotating the object in this window edits the orientation in the actual project. I would be curious if anyone ever uses this view to rotate the object?
My wish is to allow users to rotate the object in the preview window - or even better ... to orbit 360° but not affect it in the project. I rotate my objects from within the project
It would be nice to be able to zoom, pan an rotate in that preview window. Many times you cannot see what you are doing when changing parameters without exiting the properties windows to look in the project view itself, see you have done something wrong, reenter the properties windows, try again and so on 
I agree Barry. I have no issue with floor plan preview still having the affect on the object within the project. Especially since you can also define the origin point in the same view.
Glad to see others agree with me on this. The more I think about it the more I realise how helpful orbit option would be.
DGSketcher - editing cabinetry is the exact reason why this became frustrating for me.
As a work around I remember what angle the object is at originally and return it to that before I finish editing ... although it's easy to forget the angle or to actually do it

Still looking?
