Reposition and Reorient the Navigation Bar
The position and orientation of the navigation bar can be adjusted by linking
it to the ViewCube tool, docking it when the ViewCube tool is not displayed,
or freely positioning it along one of the edges of the current window.
When linked to the ViewCube tool, the navigation bar is positioned below
the ViewCube tool and in a vertical orientation. When not linked or docked,
the navigation bar can be freely aligned along one of the edges of the Scene
View.
You can specify how the navigation bar can be repositioned from the
Customize menu. When the navigation bar is not linked to the ViewCube
tool or docked, a grip handle is displayed. Drag the grip handle on the
navigation bar to reposition it along one of the sides of the Scene View.
If the side of the Scene View that the navigation bar is aligned to is not long
enough to show the entire navigation bar, it is truncated to fit. When
truncated, the More Controls button is displayed and replaces the
Customize
button. When you click the More Controls button, a menu
is displayed that contains the navigation tools that are not currently being
displayed.

1 On the navigation bar, click Customize.
2 Click Customize menu ➤ Docking Positions ➤ check Link to
ViewCube.

ViewCube are repositioned together around the current window. When
ViewCube is not displayed, the navigation bar is docked in the same
location in which ViewCube would be instead.
3 Click Customize menu ➤ Docking Positions ➤ and then a docking
position.
