Center of Rotation and Widescreen Monitors

I have DataCAD LT 10 and noticed that with my wide screen monitors, my drawings no longer center on O2C. Any idea on how I can center that drawing in O2C? It is difficult to work with when it is miss aligned.

Thanks!

Hello & welcome,

I think this is due to the placement of the lights within the model; and not because of the monitor? If you turn off all the lights in the model before opening the o2c viewer, what happens?

Thanks! I tried turning off all of the lighting, but I still have the center of rotation to the left side of the drawing.

Any other ideas?

Thanks!

Hello R,

Is there a "stray" entity on the right side of the model, by chance?

Nope, cleared that all out, even created a new drawing with only 1 wall, same thing.

Any other ideas?

Thanks!

Hi R,

You have to turn OFF all lights in the Shader menu, before entering on Object Viewer.

Perhaps I am missing something, but I find no lighting options in the Shader menu under edit.

Any other ideas?

Thanks!

Hi Twin,

Have you checked at this place for the lights ?
