Upside-down view unless in Sketch EDIT *** SOLVED ***

Post by Robert H »

Hi,

I know I accidentally clicked "something", but can't figure out what. Was working normally (started using only 2 days ago), then the view is upside-down unless I enter EDIT in Sketcher.

The pane and grid info is upside-down. The Y-axis is positive as it goes below 0, but negative above 0.

I looked for a Horizontal Mirror option, but can't see anything.

Version: 0.20.2
Revision: 29603 (Git)

Hi and welcome to the forum!

Configure your Mouse Model and learn that you no longer have a 2D view but 3D. There are predefined positions to reach either with the green cube icons or with the navicube at the right top.
A Sketcher Lecture with in-depth information is available in English, auf Deutsch, en français, en español.

D'OH!

Oh god, I must have scrolled my view without noticing it. I remember putzing with the mouse "kinda quickly" just before I lost north pole.

Thanks!
