Question...
Load a Cube...
If after I freeze this cube and answer No to the Warning, there is a Pivot applied

Shouldn't this not apply a Pivot, if a user answers No?

Also if you uncheck all but Flatten Axis, the Axis is not Flattened

Fixed uncheck all but flatten axis.

"Shouldn't this not apply a Pivot, if a user answers No?"
The script doesn't know how the user will answer the question so I don't see any way to react to it.

The buttons on the Camera and Spotlight for View ( the blue camera icon and the light View button) are confusing because they work in a floating panel but don't work from the link editor or stack panel.
These are modified versions that give an alert when they are run from the LE or stack view.

The buttons on the Camera and Spotlight for View ( the blue camera icon and the light View button) do NOT work on the floating panel either, unless you select a 3D Window first!
Should we add this Alert to all of trueSpace's toolbars Set Camera icons too!

How about all of the other toolbar icons that have the same problem?

It doesn't seem necessary. The alert was added to the Camera and Spotlight because the button behavior was inconsistent. "It works here but not over there." The toolbar buttons behave the same no matter where they are.

See if this new View icon LMB & RMB scripts works for you
Also check the new Synchronize button to see if Model's View from Object works
Steps
Open a floating Model view
With the main view or another floating 3D View active, press the Synchronize button

If this does not work maybe I need to remove the View icon from the Camera panel.
Or make it work with all opened windows
This would break being able to independently View from floating 3D Views
