Pressing 1, 2, 3, on the numeric keypad gets me 3 different spot views. Is there a way of getting another view between 1 & 2, 2 & 3, & so on, varying the view....?

The keypad, Numlock on, 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9 takes you in 9 different directions with 5 looking directly downwards.

Yes - that's the standard set-up Paul. I want a view half-way between 1 & 2, & 2 & 3.......
Say I'm at 2 - can I slide right somehow until I get the angle I want instead of going straight to the view at 3? I can zoom in & out & up & down for different views but how do I do it from 2, say to 2.5......? Huh

There is a way to do it with FSRecorder,
but it won't use the number keys,
and you'll have to set up each view that you want.

It's a little time consuming at first, but allows for an endless supply of custom camera angles. Wink
