    Am I going mad or have they inverted the examine screen camera controls?

    To any controller players out there, has anyone else noticed since the patch the controls on the examine screen have been inverted? By that I mean when you examine your character and press the little eye button to move them around.

    I want to see if anyone else has noticed this? Cause none of my friends have, yet I feel like my muscle memory pulling in the wrong direction doesn’t lie.

    This is intended and partially mentioned in the patch notes. However, the devs have acknowledged player feedback that this change is jarring to a lot of players and are considering an option to undo this. See Thread: Patch 6.3: Character Camera Controls settings should NOT apply to portrait in the UI Forum.

    Thank you all for your feedback regarding this topic.

    In the 6.3 patch notes, we'd mentioned that "Camera Controls settings applied via the Character Configuration window will now be reflected when adjusting character positioning in the Edit Portrait interface"; however, this change not only applies to the Edit Portrait interface, but to all character preview windows in general. Our explanation in the patch notes has since been revised, and we apologize for the confusion our initial explanation may have caused.

    Furthermore, we relayed your feedback to the Development team and received the following response:
    This fix was intended to correct the issue in which inverted camera controls were not correctly reflected in preview interfaces.

    However, based on the feedback we've received from players who prefer to use inverted camera controls for gameplay while maintaining normal camera controls in preview interfaces, we are currently looking into the possibility of implementing an option to designate different camera control settings for gameplay and preview interfaces in a future patch.

    We appreciate your patience as we look into this matter and apologize for the inconvenience that may be caused by the present state of the Try On feature and other preview interfaces.

    is your controller known to have occasional issues with it bugging out and forcing things to move/pan with the sticks.

    Oh my God, I thought I was also going crazy. I always invert my Y axis, so when I examined a piece and moved my left analog stick down to move my camera up, it actually went the opposite direction. I looked for a way to invert the axis but couldn't find one, so I was like: Has it always been like this and I just don't remember it right?
    There's also another issue. In the fitting room, when you try to dye a piece or do anything at all, after confirmation, your cursor's position gets reset to the "Display Gear" button. Super annoying.
