Std ViewIsometric

Description

The Std ViewIsometric command realigns the camera in the active 3D view to obtain an isometric view. For a truly isometric view the 3D view must be in orthographic mode, but the command also works if the view is in perspective mode.

Usage

  1. There are several ways to invoke the command:
    • Press the Std ViewIsometric button.
    • Select the View → Standard views → Axonometric → Isometric option from the menu.
    • Select the Standard views → Isometric option from the 3D view context menu.
    • Use the keyboard shortcut: 0.

Notes

  • It is also possible to switch to isometric view via the Mini-cube menu of the Navigation Cube.
