Sounds cool, I'd love to see it, but when I just checked that page
wasn't found...

I think you're seeing an effect of normalization - as you're changing
the object, Geomview is resetting the view to keep everything in
sight. Try setting normalization to "keep" to tell it not to change
the normalization for an object even if it changes. (Either type "3N"
in the window, or select "Keep" in the normalization section of the
appearance panel.)

An alternative is to set normalization to "none". You might have to
zoom the camera way back in order to see everything, but you're
guaranteed that Geomview is not changing *anything* behind your back.
