Memorize Scene problem
« on: March 21, 2012, 11:24:08 PM »
Help please!

Everytime I use the "memorize scene" option on the cell phone inside my house or the Library or Gym, I get a nice photo of the roof of my house, Library or Gym, etc.!  I can only take 'memorize scene' photos outside and when I do, I can never centre them.  I use the arrows on my keypad (you know, the ones between the alpha and numeric keypads) but I just can't quite get the shot right where I need it to be.  I get the left leg of my toddler or her right shoulder - never all of her unless I want to change the photo size and then get an acre of background.  Zoom is inconsistant.  Once again I get the left leg or the right shoulder.  Is there a way to move the scene on the cell phone in small enough fractions to allow me to capture all of her.  Also is there a way to take photo's indoors?

I get the same problem when trying to paint still-life paintings.  I can't rotate the screen shot to focus where I want it to.  I have gotten photos of the streetlight when I was trying to get a wild horse.

Can someone please, please explain it to me very very simply, I am not a very techno savvy person.  Maybe my tag should have been Clueless Magz.  I'm probably asking ridiculously simple things in the manual but because my Sims program comes on-line from Steam this means I didn't get any paper manual and the one I tried to download the link from Carl's site but it gave me pages and pages of dashes, arrows, boxes and asterisks.  :-[
