It used to function well, but now I can't rotate objects.

FoundingSol · September 2014

It used to function well, but now I can't rotate objects, and sims are unable to throw the trash. They just put the dirty dishes back on the table. Also holding the left mouse button doesn't rotate the object I purchase. I reinstalled the game and the issues still persist.

FoundingSol · September 2014

I found the solution. It was because of the camera mode. Pressing "Ctrl + Shift + Tab" changed the mode the camera functioned and now the objects rotate.

Thank you for reading the message. I'm in build mode, I press left click on the object and try to roteate it to a new angle but all it does is pan tha camera.

This is confusing. I used to be able to rotate the camera with the right mouse button down, and an object with left mouse button, but without changing the camera. In other words I could move the camera and the object in the same mode with no problems until now...I don't like the camera to only move horizontally, I want it the way it was. Any ideas?

What camera mode are you using ?
