Michael,
This question is mostly aimed at saving me when I screw up...

Is there any way to have MoI export to AI or PDF using the current viewport view instead of the last export setting?
Too many times I have set up a nice perspective view and waited; only to find I exported a front view or something.
Or maybe this has been discussed elsewhere and I missed it? Thank you.
Ron

Hi Ron, sorry no currently there's no way to do what you are asking. Right now the AI or PDF export is set up to remember which view was specified, and re-use that as the default on the next export.

It should not be doing things like randomly switching to a Front view export though, the only time that it should change is if you specifically picked a different view to export. If you do that you just have to remember to switch it back again if you need a different view on the next export time.

Maybe someday in the future I'll be able to have a preview of the 2D export as it is being generated... That would likely help you catch any mistaken view problem earlier. But there will be a lot of work involved in doing a good job of that and so it probably won't happen anytime soon though.

Thanks, Michael. I'll just have to pay closer attention and slow down!
Don't worry, it doesn't switch by itself. But occasionally I forget to set it to the view I want, and I get whatever I did last.
