Autofocus on hover over window?

Postby Psy on Mon Nov 01, 2010 4:19 pm

One is really bugging me with the UDK. Whenever you move your mouse over a window, you can move objects around and all that jazz but you can't zoom in or out unless you click inside the window. It really annoys the hell out of me as it's something so simple that can be found in a lot of 3D programs including Hammer. So is there any kind of work around?

by window you mean view right. Like, perspective, top, etc. If so yeah ive got the same issue and yes it is annoying. Especially when you have grouped loads of stuff in one view (perspective) then want to move it in 2 dimensions (top) but the view is too zoomed in.

Start holding both mouse buttons to zoom inside of a 2D view. It becomes much quicker over time!

Does that not still require clicking on the view and thus losing your selection?

Do you loose the selection if you middle mouse click on the viewport though? Does that toggle it? Cant remember..
You click on Build or type
make (or some equivalent), and you are astonished, then mortified, as you realize that the whole world is being
recompiled and relinked!
