Hello all, I am currently learning Bryce 4, and have a hard time placing the camera where I want it. For example, I generate a terrain and enlarge it to a good size (say 3 - 4 times using *), and want to take the camera down into a valley. It just seems overly hard to do. I have tried doing Camera to director, using the flyaround control, etc. One of the problems is that you can't tell where you are in wireframe, and in shaded you can't really tell what you're looking at either. Any tips on getting the camera where you want it (other than manually figuring out coordinates)? TIA
