Sometimes it is difficult to select a cross-section in the directors camera if your at an odd angle. Try holding down the 'D' key while you swing the mouse and see if a different angle helps you click on one of the cross-sections there. If you've selected a new cross-section there, you will get that section active in your 'front' veiwpoint. Or, go to the 'sections' menu and chose 'show > current.' Then use the 'sections' menu again to chose 'next' or 'previous.' This way you will definitly only choose the one you want. I also work with the mini-corner window and the 3/4 main window option. That way I can change what veiw I want to work on in the main section, while also having the directors veiw available to see what my changes are affecting. I hope this helps. Have fun! :>
