When selecting different Cameras to make them active, the Cameras become
out-of-date and they will not update again.
Solution
It is helpful to go to 'Preferences-->Visualization', select the
'Names/Borders' tab, and toggle on 'Show Model View Names'. OK the dialog. Now
in the lower left side of the screen is listed the Model View name and the
Camera that the Model View is using:
"Trimetric WORK Camera Trimetric".
Suppose that when the part is opened or created, the Trimetric view is the
work view, and the Trimetric Camera is being used in the work view.
In the lower left corner of the work view will be:
Trimetric WORK Camera Trimetric
In the Cameras section of the Part Navigator, double-click on "Front".
The green check icon before "Trimetric" is replaced by the clock icon to denote
it is out-of-date. In the lower left corner of the work view,
will be:
Trimetric WORK Camera Front
The situation is that the parameters of the Front Camera have been applied to
the Trimetric view, but the work view is still the Trimetric view, not the
Front view. The Trimetric Camera is still linked to the Trimetric view, but
the data being shown in the Trimetric view is no longer that of the Trimetric
Camera. In this situation, the Trimetric camera is out-of-date, because what
is seen in the Trimetric view is no longer the same as the parameters of the
Trimetric Camera.
The following will correct the situation:
1. For the Camera that is out of date, make the corresponding
Model View active.
2. Then highlight the corresponding out-of-date Camera,
'MouseButton3-->Activate'.
3. For the next camera that is out of date, repeat steps 1 and 2 until all
the Cameras are activated in their corresponding Model View.
For example, if the "Right" and "Top" Cameras are out of date:
Make the "Right" Model View active, then select the "Right" Camera,
'MouseButton3-->Activate'. Make the "Top" Model View active, then select the
"Top" Camera, 'MouseButton3-->Activate'.
