Aerial view centred way off to the right ?
Hi. I've just installed SweetHome3D for the first time and I'm taking my first steps in using the program. However, I cannot seem to get the 3D Aerial view to be centred within its window. Whatever I draw appears all the way over to the right side in 3D view - very often cutting off half of my building as it is outside the window.

Is this a bug or am I doing something stupid ?!

Thanks !

And how the 3D view behaves when you select 3D view > Virtual visit? Do you have the feeling that the 3D view match the location of the visitor drawn in the plan?

No. Selecting Virtual Visit makes the 3D image move to the correct perspective. Reselecting Aerial View makes the image move off to the right as my per original screenshot.

However - I have discovered that the problem is only there when the SweetHome3D window is maximised. If I draw when the application is *not* maximised, the 3D image appears in the correct position. Also, if the application IS maximised, I can correct the problem by right-clicking the 3D image window and choosing "Display in separate window".

One last thing - is it possible to make objects snap to each other or snap to grid ? I have a lot of trouble trying to make walls line-up correctly without snap.

Thanks !
