CATIA pan problem 2

Hello,

I have a problem with CATIA V5R16. The problem is that the main reference planes rotate as I pan the model. Also, this problem occurs when I see the model from side plane (either right, left, front, back, top or bottom planes)" or when I pan in "Sketcher". eg. I'd like to view from a plane say xy. Instead of seeing a box of xy plane with "+ lines" in the box indicating xz and yz planes, I see the xy plane box and smaller box inside instead of single | line.

I compare panning between my and my friend's computer. His computer has no such a problem. ie. the main planes do not rotate while panning.

Can somebody please help me out with this? Do I need to set any options to make CATIA works properly? By the way, I have tried reset parameters to default options (in tools -> options). That doesn't help at all.

I don't know if my explanation is clear so if you need more information, please let me know.

Thank you in advance for all kind helps.

Cheers

Hi,

You mean Tools-Options-Sketcher and uncheck Position sketch plane parallel to screen?
