Learn how the user interface is organized to support your workflow.
Video: Tour the User Interface
With a few clicks, you can change the interface to better support the way you work. For example, you can set the ribbon to one of 4 display settings. You can also display several model views at one time, or layer the views to see only the one on top.
Note: Your ribbon may look different if you created a
user profile and tabs/tools were hidden. It may also look different if you used the User Interface section of the
Options dialog to revise the ribbon.
