Perspective Camera transform is filling undo history (sometimes)

Vholf3DVholf3D Posts: 63

Whenever I move the Perspective Camera, either rotation or translation, SOMETIMES (most times) the update is added to the undo history, so it's breaking my posing workflow. It happens with any camera control, including my 3D navigator.

The behaviour seems erratic, sometimes it undoes the camera + the last pose change, sometimes just the pose and sometimes just the camera.

I've been away of Daz Studio for a while so I'm wondering if this is intendend, or if I messed up some settings somewhere. 

What are your thoughts? is this a bug? intended?

Thanks!

    What version of Daz Studio are you using?

  • Vholf3DVholf3D Posts: 63

    Sorry I shoud have started with that. Daz Studio 4.15.0.2 Pro 64 bits.

    Cameras are tracked for undo, the Perspective View shouldn't be. Are you sure it's one viewer that is behaving differently, rather than sometimes using a camera and sometimes Perspective View?

    I'm 100% positive I'm using Perspective View, it happens on a blank scene, no Cameras present.

    Here is a screenshot of a brand new scene (no start up scene in preferences), no other objects other than G8.

    I moved the perspective view and it's right there in the undo list.

    How did you translate the Perspective View? With keyboard WASD? With the Camera Cube? With the Pan control?

    Any of the controls I use cause the same issue. I tried WASD, Camera Cube, Pan Controll, Scene Navigation with the mouse, and my 3DConnection Space navigator device.

    It is intermitent and erratic,so I believe this to be a bug.

    Question is, is there anything I can do to aliviate the issue other than reporting it? my workflow is getting interrupted around posing.

    I don't have 4.15.0.2 installed. I am using 4.15.0.14 Public Beta, but I have never seen the behavior you are showing with any version. I don't have a 3DConnection Space navigator device, though. Maybe the problem is related to having that device. What happens if you temporarily disable it and restart Daz Studio without it? Do you still have the problem?

  • Vholf3DVholf3D Posts: 63

    I tried and yes, the problem persists. I will try completely removing the driver and related software for the navigator and see if that helps.

    Changing/moving the perspective view is never put on the undo list.

    What happens if you select the arrow tool instead of the rotate tool on the toolbar?

  • Vholf3DVholf3D Posts: 63

    What do you mean the "arrow tool"? if you mean the scene navigation tool, yes I tried that too and it still happens.
