Keep Scene Upright
Indicates whether the upside-down orientations of the scene is allowed when you use the ViewCube.
When this check box is selected, dragging the ViewCube produces a turntable effect.
When Dragging on the ViewCube
While being dragged, the ViewCube and the scene rotate in an arcball like fashion, unless the Keep Scene Upright check box is selected.
Snap to the Closest View
Indicates whether the ViewCube snaps to one of the fixed views when it is angularly close to one of the fixed views.
When Clicking on the ViewCube
Fit-to-View on Change
When this check box is selected, clicking the ViewCube rotates around the center of the scene and zooms out to fit the scene into the Scene View. When dragging the ViewCube, prior to the drag, the view changes to look at the scene center (but does not zoom) and continues to use that as the pivot point while dragging.
If this check box is clear, clicking or dragging the ViewCube rotates around the current pivot point and does not zoom in or out.
Use Animated Transitions When Switching Views
If this check box is selected, an animated transition displays when you click on a section of the ViewCube to help you visualize the spatial relationship between the current viewpoint and the selected viewpoint.
Show the Compass Below the ViewCube
Indicates whether the compass is displayed below the ViewCube tool.
