Well, indeed that's causing the not going 'round'. But that's strange, because the translation window does not take the focus..

It would be helpful to have a shortcut for the 'Fit-To-View' command. I really need it :)

Is it possible to add it?

Thanks.

Hello,

this is something you could also implement with a customization script and the function simCameraFitToView.
But it is probably a good idea to add it hard-coded. What key combination would you suggest, or better, what do other applications use for that operation normally?

Cheers

Thanks for the quick reply. I am using VREP coupled with SIMULINK and in the latter the SPACE-BAR is used to fit the view of the model to the screen. For this reason I would suggest the same shortcut.

Let me know what you think.

ctrl-space is already used to start/stop a simulation in V-REP.
So I used ctrl-b, which is still easily doable with the left hand ;)

I knew that but I meant just SPACE which doesn't look to me to be used for anything else.

By the way, when you say that YOU HAVE DONE IT, it means that it will be available in the next version released right?

Thanks.

Space alone doesn't work, it needs to be forwarded to the various key function, including simGetSimulatorMessage (e.g. when a scrips wants to check keyboard input).
The change will be available in next release, out hopefully until the end of the month.

Cheers

I checked the new version of VREP (3.2.0) but the feature seems not implemented.

I am doing something wrong or it will be implemented in the next releases?

Thanks.
