Objects don't move properly using Orbit tool in SketchUp 2021

Notice how the panel to the left of the cabinet moves in relation to the cabinet while Orbiting.

This didn’t happen in the previous version of SketchUp. How can I fix this?

Objects shouldn’t be moving when orbiting unless they are components with face camera properties. Can you share the .skp file so we can see what you’ve got?

Could it just be a distortion caused by parallel projection.

I tried, but my file to too large to upload.
Thanks for your help!

Upload it to Drop Box and share the link.

I hope this works. Here is the link: Dropbox - Sketchup - Simplify your life

It’s a face me component., the cabinet will move as you orbit to stay aligned with the camera, just as Dave suggested.

It came out of that cabinet which was set up to always face the camera. It doesn’t make any sense to give a component of that sort Face Me properties.

You might want to purge your files of unused stuff once in awhile.

That reduced the file size by a bit more than 70%.

Thanks Dave for pointing that out. I didn’t intend to have the cabinet always face the camera and I wasn’t sure how to correct it. I learned more about components as well as reducing the file size. I tried to reduce the file size by deleting most of my drawing. Now I know I need to purge the file as well… Thanks again for all of your help.
