First let me introduce myself. I'm Steph, and even though I'm not young, I am reasonably compitent with digital programmes. I've been using Photoshop and Paint Shop in their varius forms for about 7 or 8 years now, and I am an artist. I liked the look of SketchUp and I wanted to see if I could make it part of any digital paintings or even designing art furniture. But after downloading it today and following the tutorial, I tried drawing shapes, but moving the curser out into the design area, made everything zoom in until I couldn't see where I was drawing? The result of that was overlapped shapes of all sizes and at useless angles to the other shapes. It's just impossible to work with it as it is now, has anyone else come across this problem, and how do I solve it?

I have checked the system specs, everything is fine there, so is it a bug?
