Table of contents
The tool is a persistent, clickable and draggable interface used to switch between standard and isometric views of a model.
When you display the tool, it is shown in one of the corners of the window over the model in an inactive state. The tool provides visual feedback about the current viewpoint of the model as view changes occur. When the cursor is positioned over the tool, it becomes active. You can drag or click the , switch to one of the available preset views, roll the current view, or change to the view of the model.
Control the Appearance of the ViewCube
The tool is displayed in one of two states: inactive and active. When the tool is inactive, it appears partially transparent by default so that it does not obscure the view of the model. When active, it is opaque and may obscure the view of the objects in the current view of the model.
In addition to controlling the inactive opacity level of the tool, you can also control the following properties for the tool:
- Size
- Position
- Default Orientation
- Compass display
Using the Compass
The compass is displayed below the tool and indicates which direction North is defined for the model. You can click a cardinal direction letter on the compass to rotate the model, or you can click and drag one of the cardinal direction letters or the compass ring to interactively rotate the model around the pivot point.
