Disabling scroll/pan during selection

Rhino Rhino for Windows

Hi,

Is there a way to disable auto-scroll/pan during a box selection ?

Regards.

Hello - so far, I do not see any way to disable this.

Technically in Rhino 7 you can ā€œlockā€ the view from the viewport menu, so the viewport canā€™t be changed.
The funny part is that the box selection in that case keeps moving as if the view was being scrolled, but the view stays put. @Pascal- this may be considered a bug in box selection with the new ā€˜locking viewā€™ behavior introduced. If not for this, the above problem could be solved by locking the view.

Hm - I see that, thanks. That is a little odd. But even when fixed, I am not sure this is really other than a makeshift solution for this request - I guess if users really need to turns this off there ought probably to be an ā€˜advancedā€™ setting for it.

My wish for Rhino 6 and later :

In my point of view, using locks is a relevant tool but has nothing to do with selection.

Hi Lahos,

To be clear, I was not referring to locking objects.
In Rhino 7 there is a new viewport feature where user can lock the view so it canā€™t be manipulated, or auto-scrolled for that matter. It might have been a good workaround if it did not act funny as described above. Maybe it gets fixed, otherwise an option to enable auto-pan is a good suggestion.
You could have a key shortcut to lock/unlock the view using the new _-LockViewport command.
It is also on the View menu here:

RH-62206 is fixed in the latest Rhino 7 Service Release Candidate

Still sad to manage every views one by one to disable scrolling during selection.

Looks like there is a solution available now, via a test command. I did not try it but Pascal and Mikko posted this:

Magnifico !

I Hope the leading ā€œTestā€ of the command TestAutoPan does not mean it may disappearā€¦

Thanks

Hi,

Apparently it is discarded in the last release. So Iā€™m back to the beginning.
Is there a way to disable auto-panning ?
I tried to set Rhino.Options.View.PanIncrement to zero but nothing changed.

Help ?!?

Regards.
