3D Views

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

Working Perspective 3D Views

Working Perspective 3D views show the building model in a 3d view as it is seen with the eye, with height, width, and depth.

The default view when you create a new project in Vasari is named "Vasari 3D." In this working perspective view you can create, edit and select elements and modify their type and instance properties. The View Control Bar indicates that the view is a perspective view.

Perspective Camera 3D Views

Perspective Camera 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. The View Control Bar indicates that the view is a perspective view. Unlike in Working Perspective Views, you cannot create or modify elements in Perspective Camera 3D views

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.
