Hi...
Can anyone tell me why my camera control disappeared? It's clicked on the View drop down menu but it's gone! Any help would be most appreciated. Thanks!

If camera control is marked with an X in front in view options then it will appear on your screen..
If you have change the window size just by pulling the window border more in or out with the mousepointer it sometimes happens that the camera controls get pushed out of the viewable window... just resize back to full screen and search for a very small square some where in the windowborder/interface area...left or right.. put mousepointer on the square and hold left mouse button and drag the square back onto the full screen and place it anywhere you like....

Example of the square in the window/interface border:

Example of pulling the square out of the window/interface border:


Hope that just was it...

If that solution bewilders you, try this.
Wear a HUD, edit it and use your mouse scroll wheel to zoom out of the normal viewer window (which will now resemble a yellow square inside your screen) any other UI HUDS such as Camera, Movement etc, should come into view, grab them and drag them back inside the yellow frame, then close the edit window and it will retun to normal.

If you dont have a HUD, or cannot edit the ones you do have, rez a prim, right hand click and choose more.. then Attach to.. choose Center 2 on the Attach To Hud menu. Oh, make sure you shrink that prim down to very small, otherwise you wont see any of your screen lol. You can also rez a prim, shrink it, take that into your inventory, and right hand click, and go to the Attach To Hud, menu, choosing Center 2 (assuming its not already taken, otherwise use Center).
