Locking The Perspetive/camera

Often need to go back to the same perspetive/camera stand when I need more renderings of the same scene but with differnt parts visible.

I do this by adding a new camera, in wich I then do the modelling. When I want to render I go back to my first perspective/camera. But sometimes I accidentaly move around in the scene and my 'viewpoint' is lost unless I write all settings down on a note.

Is there a way to lock the camera so I can not move around in the scene? Or a way to remember different camera standpoints?

    There is not a way to do this directly yet. We will be adding this feature soon. There is a way to do this as a workaround.

    Enter the Animation mode.

    Select the camera you wish to use.

    Adjust your camera to the position and setting you want.

    Setting your camera as Keyframe #1

    Repeat the process for all your cameras using different Keyframe numbers.

    Now anytime you want to go back to that camera position just go back to the Animation mode and select the saved Keyframe.

    Hope that helps for now.

    Cheers,

    Darren
