Move the view in the creator
Added by Xavier COIFFARD 144 days ago
Hello,
I just started in vastpark creator tool and i started with the 1st tutorial.
I made it easily but i have a question about the camera mouvment. I understand you can move objects with the 3 narrows on the left side of the design window but i can't find where i can zoom on object, rotate the view around etc etc...
Is it possible ? I try all the shorcut i thought about but no one works...

Hi Xavier,
There is a great need for more documentation of the Creator! Yes, you can.
To move the view around:- Hold down the right mouse button, this puts you into Freelook mode
- To fly the view around, continue to hold down the right mouse button and press W, A, S and D (traditional FPS keys for an English US keyboard)
We have realized that the key combination W, A, S & D is not necessarily convenient on non-US keyboards. Do you have a suggestion on what is best on a French keyboard. We could also support the arrow keys as well. This might make life easier. Also, we do have the aim to offer user definable key-binding but it is not yet near the top of our list of ToDos.

Another thing: SHIFT enables you to move much faster. How fast depends on your settings in the Options configuration.
Oh, and by the way, the arrow keys currently nudge the selected object. The distance for each nudge depends on what you've set the grid size to.

Thank you bruce for your help.
Actually it also works on the French keyboard, here it's Z,S,Q,D like i use in the FPS games.
Now i completed the first tuto ;)
