"Orthographics are currently locked" when they are not?

I'm not sure what I did but I can not see anything on my front view,whenever I try to work in the front view it says orthographic views are currently locked but they are not.On an attempt to try and fix it I messed up and my side view had the same problem now,I clicked on another camera and focused it by pressing f on the side view which caused this error I believe and I can't seem to find any solutions online.Screenshot_1.png

Hi,

 

I get this message "Orthographic views are currently locked" when I try to tumble an orthographic view.

Pan and zoom works just like normal.

 

You can unlock an orthographic view for tumble in the option box of (Panel menu) View->Camera Tools->Tumble Tool:

I am having this issue on several machines in my lab. We are not trying to tumble in ortho views, but simply track. It will work with the track tool, but not with the mouse shortcut. It's becoming quite annoying to try and work without the shortcut. I tried trashing preferences, resetting work spaces, locking and unlocking the camera. We are running Maya 2018 on MacOS Sierra.

Please use Alt+p to solve "Orthographics are currently Locked" Problem

This solution solves the current viewport issue but strangly enough generates another one wich causes an abnormal scaling of the local rotation axis of joints .Maya neverending bugs.

Alt+p seems only to make your orthogonalCamera a perspective one (at least for me).

That is unfortunately not a solution.
