Manipulating the model in a view

You can manipulate your model in a view by turning and rotating it.

To manipulate the model in a view:

  1. Right-click the view to display the context menu.
  2. Select Modify to display the Edit View dialog.
  3. Press and hold down the middle mouse button on the view and use the mouse to rotate the model in model space.

    When you rotate a view in a drawing, the border of the view also rotates with the model to maintain the appropriate orientation with the view. For example, if you rotate a view from horizontal to vertical, the border also rotates to vertical eliminating the need to resize the borders.

  4. Click OK on the Edit View dialog to save the changes.
