Lately, when I'm panning around with the camera and stop to focus on something, the camera will continue drifting closer to whatever I'm looking at. If I release alt, the drift stops. Anyone else experiencing this, or am I in my own private camera hell with this one?

There seems to be some kind of "auto FOV" code in SL. I've noticed that if you have certain objects intersecting the view, the camera automatically adjusts its FOV to compensate. (Like, a rotating object that occasionally obstructs the view.)
Think this might be related?

It's tied directly to UI size. If your UI is not 1.0, there's a random chance you'll get camera drift.
To fix it, set your UI size to1.0 and it should go away.

I've got a similar, but slightly different issue with the camera, which has been going on for quite a while now. When I hold down alt and move the mouse, the camera moves as it should, but then when I stop moving the mouse, the camera drifts slowly to the left until I release the keys. It's really annoying.
Not that it's too hard to work around this problem - just develop the habit of releasing the keys instead of just stopping the mouse in order to pause camera movement - but it's still an annoyance. As much as I might be consciously aware that I should be using the new habit, my fingers tend to remember the old one, and letting up on the keys is never my first instinct. Oh well.
Anyone else experiencing this? Just curious.
