Alright, spent way too long messing with this yesterday so I'm throwing it out to the public commons.
Due to a HD crash this is a fresh install of Maya 8.5 and after getting all my settings and controls set back up I'm having an issue with the Camera tumble tool not pivoting as it should. It will ONLY pivot from the camera point itself regardless of what settings are checked - in other words I'd really like it to tumble around the selected object. I played with checking and unchecking every box in the Tumble Settings and none of them act differently. Have tried resetting all preferences, resetting the tool, etc.
While it doesn't prevent me from working, it's bloody annoying for a workflow when you can't rotate around the object you're working on.

What am I missing here? I've already stumped our other in-house users. :headbang:
