Since Blizzard changed the Previewer to the Cutscene Editor, I am planning to study up on this a bit. However, quick question regarding viewing Models. My map now has Terrain over the default viewing position of the model.
I would like to move the Model so I can view it, but when I change the model's position x, position y I am not sure the model is moving. That is, I am moving the model to an unoccupied place on the map but it is not visible.
I rely on the cutscene editor and viewing models to see their animations and attach points, so I need to be able to move the Model back to where I can view it.
Update: Opening the Model Data and changing position X, position Y will work. The cutscene editor does not appear to use standard map position so you may want to start with a big object like a Command Center to see where the object is.

Any quick fix?

You can hide the terrain under Render and then Show Ground.
There should be three arrows around the model when selected with the left click that left click allows you to drag it.
Just close and open the cutscene editor and it usually goes back it default.

@DrSuperEvil: Go
Thanks. I will try this.
Yeah, this is already really helpful. I found several useful options under Render
Show Ground > Grid hides Actors on the map and only displays the Grid, so the Model stands out.
Also under Render > Show Attachment Points is really helpful.
The show model data option is also very useful.
