Zooming into object closely

Hey, I am noticing with some scenes I am working on in Painter, that I cannot zoom in to objects very closely which is making it hard to paint.  Is there a max zoom in option? I havent found one but I am not sure why I cannot get right up close and personal with my objs's. Any ideas or settings to make this work?

 

Thanks!

This has been sitting here for a year, but I have the same issue. How do I adjust the camera constraints in Substance Painter? I also often have trouble getting close enough to my model in the 3D viewport.

I reached out to Adobe directly and they say there's currently no way to control this setting. It is locked to a set distance.
"There is no direct option for the setting you're looking for in Substance Painter. "

The only way I can get past this is by hovering over a part of my mesh that's furthur in the distance, zooming into that, and angling the camera to look at a part of my mesh that's in the foreground.

Hello @GottaScrollFast,

 

Thanks for bringing up this issue.

 

To be honest, I've never had problem zooming, but obviously it's not because I didn't face it that the issue doesn't exist. Therefore, could you send me examples of this zooming issue (videos or gif), so I can clearly communicate with the team how this is an issue.

 

Best regards,
