I've noticed a glitch in Bryce 5.5 (on Mac OSX). I can change the settings for the vertical or horizontal panning of the camera but the view doesn't change at all. It doesn't seem to respond whatesoever. It worked fine in Bryce 5.
Does anyone have a solution for me?

Well, you're doing better then I am! To be sure I follow, you're selecting Edit Current Camera... and changing the values for the Pan V and H? Under OS10.4.6, Bryce 5.5C (5.5.12.40) crashes as soon as I enter any value. It looks like a bug which I can't think of any workaround (other then manually draging the Pan icon). Not much help; Dan

My problem was that the pan values got reset as soon as you went into a material editor or a tree lab or a ....Does this in bryce 5 and bryce 5.5 and yeah, I lodged a bug report at DAZ with it. Suggest you do the same.

Flak, now that you mention it, yes, that happened to me a LOT in Bryce 5. Once I had a camera setting I liked I would save it in a button setting so that when it reset I could reload it. Annoying but at least it could BE SET. In Bryce 5.5 it won't respond at all.
Dan, You've perked my curiosity... I'm not sure I ever use the Pan ICON. I'll look for that.

Interestingly, typing Pan values works just fine for me under 10.3.9 on my G5. The Pan tool is the hand icon at the lower right of the main window.

The pan tool (hand icon at lower right) works just fine for me. Thanx for bringing that to my attention. I had forgotten that it is there; I got so used to typing in values when in a side view and having the camera selected. The latter technique still doesn't work for me. And when I use the pan tool even though the camera view changes, the "FOV" guide lines do not change. Oh well, at least for now, I think the manual workaround will get me by. Thanx!
