"Set custom smart target", I don't get it

I have trouble with this command.

OK, when I press “T” in the external view, I get something like a blue targeting dot which I can move (changing the external view with mouse) to where I want. I am guessing this to set a specific landmark as a customer target. But what now? Do I have to press an additional key to activate it? If I just release the mouse button, nothing happens, Smartcam does not have an additional target. Has anyone made it work, and what was the trick?

Thanks!

Does the lack of answers mean that nobody tried to use that feature? :slight_smile:

I would actually be very neat if it worked…

Wasn’t even aware this was a thing, going to fiddle with it now.

Edit: Ok yep if you select an area with that big blue target you can lock onto it with the SmartCam button afterwards.

Thanks.

OK. did more tests. Yes it does something, but it is somehow very imprecise. E. g. if I target a building on the left, yes a SmartCam target to the left is added, but it is not the building, usually some distance behind it. I wonder what I am doing wrong…
