Why is it so hard to use 'orbit' in autocad architecture 2010...

[marlon]

...compared to 2002??? In 2002, I turn the orbit this way, it turns my object similarly. Not so in 2010 architecture.......i'm on a deadline, can somebody help me out please....i can't find any configurations that i need to adjust!!!

What is the exact nature of the problem you are experiencing in Architecture 2010?

ReMark, right now it's the orbit, it doesn't move my object the way i want it to. when i was using autocad 2002, if I turn the orbit (the green one) to the left, the 3d object turns to the left. Right now in archi 2010, i turn left, the object TILTS to the right (i'm using free orbit).

 

By the way, is the GUI for architecture 2010 different from the regular autocad 2010?

Hello. I'm using autocad architecture 2010 right now.

 

I got a 3d drawing from a cadtutor user, biara 6.dwg

 

and created my own Drawing1.dwg

 

so you can compare the way they 'orbit'.

 

Notice in the other user's drawing (biara 6.dwg) that when you orbit the object, it turns accordingly; you turn left, the object turns left.

 

But in mine, the simple cube object (Drawing1.dwg), you turn the orbit to the left, the object just TILTS.

 

Help please!!!!

wait, scratch that......it seems that it is only when the z axis is pointing up that i am able to turn the object the way i want it to, why is that?? i never had this problem when i was using autocad 2002. i am now using autocad architecture 2010.
