Go to the Mathematica Preference Dialog. In that Dialog select the Interface tab. In that tab, check the box that says "Automatically re-fit 3-D graphics after rotation." I am not sure why the graphic zooms so much if that box is unchecked: it seems as though it is much too much of a zoom, and perhaps this is a bug. That checkbox covers the global setting of the option RotationAction. Hope that this helps, David http://scientificarts.com/worklife Extending Mathematica's Reach....
