Left click? or Right click?... I was using my right click button to rotate the camera view just last night. Have you checked your keymapping options in the game? (menu -> options -> keymapping tab) Maybe the rotate camera keymapping needs re-setting.|

Hmmmmm.... I think my description window is still spinning the image, though I have had it "hang" when the editor seems to get "tired & jumpy". I seem to recall there being a mention of a memory leak when in edit mode, maybe that's a factor. I don't know of any editor options for adjusting the windows. |
and right click doesnt work for me to rotate the view.
Hasn't worked for me since I went to Win7 (with the same hardware I was using for WinXP). I'm not sure why. Hold PageUp and rotate with your mouse - it's the best work-around.
Sounds like your key binding was reset when you upgraded to the new PC.Same thing happened to me when I replaced my old PC.
Go to your [menu-options-keymapping-on demand mouse look] reset to the proper key you would like to use [right mouse button] Also,make sure you use the "apply now" option at the bottom of the window.
I personally use my middle mouse button,that way I can still use the right mouse button for rotating objects.
