Hi All,

Houdini viewport tumbling is driving me crazy. I have tried all three methods under Preferences and they all seem to work the same.

Is there any keyboard short cut that will simply “RESET” the viewport?

It seems like it is too easy to get the viewport out of whack and you are just stuck.

Or I tend to Space + G a lot, to focus on the selection.
I'm o.d.d.

Another handy option is to reset the tumble centre.

Spacebar-Z also sets the tumble Centre and does a pan-to-centre.

Spacebar-Shift-Z sets tumble centre without the pan.

FWIW I switch the two options above so that Spacebar-Z sets centre without the pan as I personally use this far more.
There's at least one school like the old school!
