Beginner

Viewport controls are displayed at the top-left corner of each viewport, and provide a convenient way of changing views, visual styles, and other settings.

The labels display the current viewport settings. For example, the labels might read

[+] [Top] [2D Wireframe]

You can click within each of the three bracketed areas to change the settings.

  • Click + to display options for maximizing the viewport, changing the viewport configuration, or controlling the display of navigation tools.
  • Click Top to choose between several standard and custom views.
  • Click 2D Wireframe to choose one of several visual styles. Most of the other visual styles are used for 3D visualization.
