Switch to an Adjacent Face
When the ViewCube tool is active while viewing a model from one of the face views, four orthogonal triangles
are displayed near the ViewCube tool. You use these triangles to switch to one of the adjacent face views.
Front View
You can define the Front view of a model to define the direction of the face views on the ViewCube tool. Along
with the Front view, the up direction of a model is also used to define the direction of the face views on the
ViewCube tool.
NOTE Front view is a global setting and will be the same for viewpoints.
To reorient the current view to a preset orientation
■ Click one of the faces, edges, or corners on the ViewCube tool.
To view an adjacent face
NOTE Make sure a face view is current.
■ Click one of the triangles displayed near the edges of the ViewCube tool.
To interactively reorient the view
■ Click the ViewCube tool, hold down the left mouse button, and drag in the direction that you want to orbit
the model.
To use animated transitions when reorienting a view to a preset orientation
1 Right-click the ViewCube tool, and click ViewCube Options.
2 In the Options Editor, the ViewCube page under the Interface node, select Use Animated Transitions When
Switching Views.
