IHow can I set my view in V2 to stay the way I want ,NOT overhead as it defaults to.

[Circe Broom]

I tried to set my view in Preferences but that doesn't work.. I've tried every setting there I can, and my view always defaults to TOO CLOSE and OVER my head, either behind or in front or side, whichever of those views I had, but always too close and always overhead. I want to see straight ahead and from behind my avatar.. and not so close. Please help!

I hope that helps.
