To pan a model:
• On the Viewpoint menu, click Navigation Mode > Pan
or
• Click Pan on the Navigation Mode toolbar.
Dragging the left mouse button pans the model up, down, left and right.
Holding down the Shift or Control keys, or spinning the mouse wheel, temporarily puts this mode into
normal Zoom mode.
Orbiting
The orbit mode enables you to orbit the camera around the model, ensuring that "up" is always "up". The
camera always orbits around the focal point of the model.
To orbit a model:
• On the Viewpoint menu, click Navigation Mode > Orbit
or
• Click Orbit on the Navigation Mode toolbar.
Dragging the left mouse button, or using the cursor keys, rotates the camera around the model.
Holding down the Shift key or spinning the mouse wheel, temporarily puts this mode into normal Zoom
mode.
Holding down the Control key glides the camera left and right and up and down. As orbit mode is
camera-centric, this mode differs from the normal pan mode in that the camera is moved rather than the
model.
Examining
The examine mode enables you to rotate the model about.
To examine a model:
• On the Viewpoint menu, click Navigation Mode > Examine
or
