Does any one know if you can turn off the stupid animation Inventor does when you start a new sketch?
What I'm talking about is when you click to start a new sketch Inventor tries to reorient the view.
Example: I start a new sketch on the Top plane. Inventor then spins 180 degrees so everything I sketch is upside down.
I absolute hate this feature. I usally orient the model with the plane I want to sketch on, the way I want it, before starting a sketch and then when I do start a new sketch, Inventor goes and messes everything up. Why does it feel the need to do this???
Thanks for any advice.

What version of Inventor are you using? This is one of the oldest and most documented annoyances with Inventor going back as far as I can remember. Many discussion threads on this topic as well as many suggestions in the Inventor Idea Station to fix this.
I'm not sure if this was addressed in 2014 or not, but I sure hope it is soon because many of us here feel your pain.

Thank you so much. You don't know how much frustration you just saved me. I'm originally a Soildworks user and this was one feature of Inventor that irrated the hell out of me.
