I know I'm doing something wrong, seeing as I hit a key and suddenly I have four camera views instead of one. My question is, how do I get the single view back? It drives me up the wall seeing as the only times this happens is when I've put a LOT of time into a picture, and I haven't saved recently! ^-^;;; If anyone knows what I'm talking about, and can assist me on this, I'd be grateful!

There are buttons next to your main view allowing you to quickly switch camera setups. Choose the one with only one box showing... a few minutes and I'll post a screen shot. ;)

So there's a keyboard shortcut? Have a look down the left side of the document window in the Pose display. You'll see eight square buttone, not very visible because of the colours Curious Labs chose. They select various combinations of cameras, the top one is the default main-camera-only view. It doesn't change any camera positions, so you needn't worry about losing anytthing.

Yeah, there are hot keys, too. I try not to use them, though. I tend only to use the keyboard for value entries, copy-paste of settings, rendering, and going into free rotation for the cameras... But that's mainly a "me" thing. I suck at shortcuts. :)

Woohoo! TY both softriver and AntoniaTiger! :) I never knew about those! Gods, all the images I've lost because I've goofed up with hitting a key and not being able to co back to one camera... shudder Best not to think of such things! Check my gallery in a couple days, and see what exactly had me panicking!

Anytime, DS! Now you get back to rendering... I want something to look at in a few days! =D
