Orbit Around Selection

Orbit Around Selection is for orbiting around the selected object. This feature speeds up the workflow. This feature is not enabled by default. We can’t orbit around the selected object without this feature being enabled. I am saying here “the selected object” because after enabling this feature, we can orbit around the selected object. If we don’t select the object, we will orbit around all objects.

How to enable “Orbit Around Selection”

Go to Edit → Preferences  → Navigation  → Orbit & Pan  → Orbit Around Selection

Let’s start testing this feature.
