Re: Pan tool in 3D and 2D view?
No, I didn't mean to change the return to center behaviour, this occurred by mistake while optimizing the code. I'll fix it in the next release which will bring a new feature too.

Re: Pan tool in 3D and 2D view?
@Daniels118 Thanks for great pan tool! I feel it very handy, especially when jumping constantly between SketchUp and SH3D. With version 1.3.x my models easily escaped to infinity when using zoom. Version 1.5 has not this problem. Hide obstacles help to create unique views not otherwise (at least easily) possible.

Re: Pan tool in 3D and 2D view?
@Daniels118 Just a side note, you should probably create a new top-level post in the "New versions" forum. That appears to be where all the other plugins are posted, and updated. nThis wonderful little addition would get more exposure there I think.

Re: Pan tool in 3D and 2D view?
@sjb007 I'm currently working on another plugin to draw 3D wirings (electric cables, tubes, etc.). To allow placement of wires on the floor as well on the walls, drawing will occurr directly on the 3D view. This may require some adjustment to the pan plugin, so there is a chance I will build a new version before giving it such exposure.

Re: Pan tool in 3D and 2D view?
@Daniels118 Hi, me again. I think I found a nasty side effect of the Pan3DView plugin. When I do a "Virtual visit" and walk around after a while the Left-click-drag action to change the direction the visitor is looking will break. It is not immediate, but after a while the visitor viewpoint starts to spin in a wild and uncontrollable fashion with the left-click-drag. I can reproduce even with an empty world space. If I remove the Pan3dView plugin I cannot cause this behaviour to occur.

Hi sjb007, I've tried to reproduce the issue but without success (again). For how long you have to walk around before the problem occurrs? Can you grab the console output as done before?

Re: Pan tool in 3D and 2D view?
There's something really odd going on. If I try to redirect the console I get a hard lock of the application instead of the madly spinning POV. I also have an empty log file. I tried redirecting just the error console, and both standard out and error. Didn't matter. Same hard lock and empty log. Only way to quit out is to End Task in Task Manager. I've repeated several times and it is totally consistent for me. With redirects I get hard locks. Without redirect I get spinning POV. My laptop has selective Intel/nVidia for applications. I get the same behaviour running on both, so it isn't some gfx driver issue I think. I can trigger both issues in ~10-15s, maybe even less. I just hold left mouse button and move the mouse in a continuous small circle. The issues are triggered in more usual usage too, but this is the "quick" method.

Re: Pan tool in 3D and 2D view?
I had no luck trying to reproduce the problem :( First, check if you are using the latest version of the plugin (1.7). If you can, please upload a video of the steps to do to reproduce.
