fixating view in motion study animation recording

In SW 2008 SP4.0, I am using generating a motion study whereI have a rod rotating, and I want to save that animation but withthe viewpoint being from the left side. I switch view so I amnormal to Left plane, and then press calculate. All goes well, andthen I save the animation file. Except once I began rendering thismovie, it is back in the configuration before I switched to theviewpoint that is normal to the Left plane. As a result, I am notgetting an animation movie with the view I want.

So the question is, how can I set a viewpoint when I am saving ananimation? Anyone? Any pointers/tips would help. Thanks!SolidworksMotion Studies
