"Well that's just showing a difference in work flow."

Yes for animation I agree with you, but I am just talking about examining the figure  
 Using a  pose camera is a pain because you have to readjust your lighting to see the figure
better every time you rotate the camera... Unless you set your lighting for 360 degree ilumination.. Again--  this is a another  set of extra steps just to have a quick look .  

 Whether or not this the best choice does not hide the fact that the dang thing doesn't work the
way it used to and should. I just was curious if others have experienced similar problems.
I'll turn in a bug report SM
