I discovered that one on Martin's laptop when I did my talk at the BCRA
conference! I think I've found the problem, but haven't tested the fix
yet.

I've not seen this. I wonder if it's an interaction with the error
dialog?

Perspective view works in a different way to the normal view. The
viewpoint is at the centre of rotation for the normal view, and you fly
around inside the model. So instead of zoom in/out, the same keys,
mouse movements, etc move the viewpoint forwards and backwards.
Once you know how it works, does that seem sensible? Perspective
view really needs a proper viewpoint, rather than the direction + zoom
which the standard aven view uses.

Oops, I forgot to mention that the following aren't yet working:
* Grid
* Crosses are shown, but the size and orientation changes in odd ways
* Blobs for entrances, etc are square not round
* Labels display in front of everything - it's not clear what the best
approach is here, since you don't want a label be inside a solid
passage!
