After updating from 7.5.258 to 7.5.293 I have noticed this weird behaviour that occurs when you tumble the camera after zooming in. The camera seems to pop to a slightly different location and a bunch of roll is added in, as far as I can tell, a totally random way. It's really driving me nuts and i'm surprised that no one else has noticed it (at least on the forums I go to).

here is a gif illustrating the issue:


It's weird that it only happens after a camera zoom. You can pan and tumble all you want, but after a zoom, the next tumble will pop the camera into a weird spot/rotation. Is anyone else having this problem?

Thanks,
Karl

Have you tried this with alternate tumbling methods, panning methods, or other view state operations?

Yes. I have tried all the different “Tumbling Methods” and “View State Operation Defaults” in the preferences, but it makes no difference. I still have my previous houdini build installed and its fine.

If you are using Redshift, check out this post [www.redshift3d.com] on their forum.

Thanks for the tip Pabcou, that was totally it.

The problem seems to be a weird interaction between the current version of Houdini and an older Redshift plugin. The fix is to install the version of Redshift that is specifically built against 17.5.293.
