    Create perspective and orthographic 3D views, and enhance them by adding a background, adjusting the camera position or extents, or changing view properties.

    Perspective 3D Views

    Perspective 3D views show the building model in a 3D view where components that are further away appear smaller, and components that are closer appear larger.

    You can select elements in a perspective view and modify their type and instance properties. When you create or view a perspective 3D view, the View Control Bar indicates that the view is a perspective view.

    Orthographic 3D Views

    Orthographic 3D views show the building model in a 3D view where all components are the same size regardless of the camera’s distance.
