I have a simple but very annoying problem with SAFE 2014.

I have been tasked with modeling and designing many different mat foundations supported on piles. We have just made major changes to the structure above and I need to move around a lot of piles and points. My question is; every time I use the move or replicate command, SAFE resets my zoom level to fully zoomed out - is there a way to prevent this?

It sounds like a silly problem but I am doing lots of moving points a matter of inches in a large model with 4 different irregular mat foundation in it, so it takes me a few seconds every time to find where i was working and zoom back in. Any ideas of how I might disable this auto-zoom feature? Thanks in advance!
 
I've had the same issue and haven't found a solution to it. Sometimes it's quicker just to re-draw everything as a DXF and import it again.
