Viewport ctrl+ camera position bookmarks not saving. RESOLVED

I use ctrl+1,ctrl+2,ctrl+3 to save camera positions in the editor viewport. The next time I open the project the positions are reset. Might have something to do with source. Is there a file that needs checked out in order for the shortcuts to save?

You have to save your map for camera positions to be saved.

One thing I’ve experienced. If you open your map, save camera positions (without doing anything else), then right after save your map and close it. The positions will not be saved. After saving camera positions, I usually had to move something within the map, then save and camera positions work after.

It works, the shortcuts save after you adjust then save the top most persistent map. Thanks for the quick answer.

Had this issue in UE-5.0.3 when creating new projects.

Solved it like this:

  1. Open Viewport Options (round button with three lines in top left of viewport)
  2. Go to Bookmarks → “Clear all bookmarks”
  3. Then do “Set Bookmark” couple times from within that menu
  4. Save, Exit UE, and start project again
  5. Done! Bookmarks should work as expected, including hotkeys like ctrl-1, ctrl-2, etc

Bookmarks for views, work well. But I can´t use the same system for cameras. How to save camera transform?
