2017 CAD Model Rotation Slipping??

We just jumped from 2014 to 2017. In 2017 when I rotate the CAD model it seems to slip away from my mouse quite often.

Has anyone else had this issue? When I run 2014 again it works just fine...

It makes me want to fight my computer!

Yeah. It's been happening since 2016. One of those slight annoyances, but I just click the scale to fit button to recenter. It usually happens when my trihedron isn't near where I'm clicking.

Yeah, "Pierce CAD on 3D Rotate" isn't an F5 option anymore... It's "built in". Which explains why it doesn't work half the time.

I made a note of this in February, although it appears to have been removed before 2016. http://www.pcdmisforum.com/forum/pc-dmis-enterprise-metrology-software/pc-dmis-for-cmms/395039-pc-dmis-2017-r1-is-officially-released/page2

Every time it slips I feel my blood pressure skyrocket... If I die, blame hexagon.

DItto. It pisses me off, more than it probably should (I mean it's such a little thing, but that ends up making it more infuriating, since that means it should be an easy fix, or maybe never have been broken in the first place... undocumented "enhancement"). It never happened in 2012 with the option checked.

It's a bandaid for a simple problem that didn't used to exist, and shouldn't exist now.

Vinni, I don't disagree with you.

VinniUSMC exactly! I'm a pretty zen guy and not much gets to me... with all the other frustrations this job entails, this slipping is by far the most annoying.

I'm almost mashed by Z key through my keyboard at this point!

I like that it seems to happen for no reason and at no given time... like, it waits just long enough for me to forget it's a thing, then it goes.

This is how I die.............

It's funny imagining a grown man taking his index finger thru an old mechanical keyboard yet your avatar is a sweet little muffin!
