Description
System information
- SolveSpace version: Version 3.1 (3.1~70bde63c)
- Operating system: macOS Ventura 13.4.1
Expected behavior
Clicking on the 3-axis gizmo in the bottom left and dragging it should take me to a 3D orbit view or tell me how to get there. It should not IMO do nothing even if the view settings are set up such that the rotation is locked or the view is locked to a 2D plane. I believe it is preferable to detect this and instruct the user for better UX.
Actual behavior
Clicking and dragging the gizmo doesn't move the view.
Additional information
I ran into this while following the basic tutorial here:
https://solvespace.com/bracket.pl
I have my sketch and now I am ready to extrude to the 3rd dimension. I go and click on New Group > Extrude and get this warning:
Heeding its advice I head to Sketch > In Workplane (as opposed to my currently selected Anywhere in 3D) and get this warning:
At this point I am stuck in a loop, not sure how to break out. I am a new user so I am not familiar with the nomenclature of UI of SolveSpace hence my above suggestion to detect common failure cases (like the attempt to use the Gizmo while it is locked to a 2D plane) and instruct the user how to get out of them.
