Default Re: Rotational axis in 3D viewq

Lol.

Highlight the object you want to rotate around, then press the 'f' key on the keyboard. This will move the center of the view from whereever it is to the center of whatever you have highlighted.

The other thing, check and make sure whether you are in "spin" or "walk" mode. There's a small pull-down menu on the title bar of 3D viewport. Make sure it's set to "spin". Walk mode is useful for large scenes, but it can be hard to navigate for viewing objects.
