I use a mixture.  I use snap view but when tied up with a con I use padlock view that pans.  I then use snap for SA and when done looking around it snaps right back to the con.

I understood this to be the F7 view or technically called "snap" which I use. It is a very fast panning between views.


F8 which is purely pan is not a normal view option for POV settings. It is far too slow and I do not use it except when in an external view in the tower or a gun emplacement.

I have tried F9 (Instant) and find it un-natural and unpleasant to use.

:(  Can we delete the thread and start again this time with what I was sure Max meant as F7 or F9 !

Here here!  My head is spinning!   I think I understand what most everyone really wants to say here even if they use the term "pan" when mean "snap", etc.  :O

I've always used F9 (instant).  To me, F7 (snap) is just a slower transition to the same view.  Maybe that creates nausea in some?

If I recall, I think instant was preferred because it was quicker.  To me, if I lose track of the nme then making a view transition slower isn't going to help.  That said, I'll try F7 and see if it makes a difference.

Instant.

In the environments I tend to fly the snapview is too slow most of the time.

I didn't start using instant untill maybe a year ago though but can't go back to snap now.
