- Work with Model and Layout Tabs
Drawing files have two working environments called model space and paper space, which are accessed by the Model tab and one or more layout tabs. - Pan or Zoom a View
You can pan to reposition the view in the drawing area or zoom to change magnification. You can easily restore previous views after panning or zooming. - Switch Between Open Drawings
The ribbon contains several options for displaying multiple open windows. - Navigate with the SteeringWheels
SteeringWheels are tracking menus that are divided into different sections known as wedges. Each wedge on a wheel represents a single navigation tool. You can pan, zoom, or manipulate the current view of a model in different ways. - Navigate with the ViewCube
The ViewCube is a 3D navigation tool where you can also switch between standard and isometric views. - Use Navigation Bar
The navigation bar provides access to navigation and orientation tools from a single interface. - Enable Movement with ShowMotion
ShowMotion provides an onscreen display that can be used to play cinematic camera animations. These animations can be used for presentation purposes or to navigate through a design. - Specify Views for 3D Models
3D views provide important additional visual information for 3D models. - Overview of Parallel and Perspective Views
You can create realistic visual effects in a drawing by defining either parallel or perspective projections of a model. - Control Views on Layouts
On a layout tab, you can pan and zoom the entire layout or just a view within a layout viewport. - Restore Named Views
You can restore named views previously saved in a drawing.
