SetView

The SetView command changes the view to a standard view (top, bottom, left, right, front, back, perspective, or two-point perspective) of the current construction plane or the world coordinate system.

Steps

Specify a command line option.

Options

CPlane

Sets the active view (camera, target, etc.) to a plan view based on one of Rhino's pre-defined construction planes (Back, Bottom, Front, Left, Right, and Top). The view's projection is not modified, and this option does not update the view's construction plane. Since there is no definition for a Perspective construction plane, there is no Perspective option. The following illustrations show views of the Right construction plane.

Left

World

Sets the active view (camera, target, etc.) to one of Rhino's pre-defined view orientations (Back, Bottom, Front, Left, Right, Top, and Perspective). Also, the view's projection is modified to match the pre-defined view orientation.

In addition to setting the view orientation, the World options also modify the active view's construction plane, setting it to the corresponding, pre-defined construction plane. The exception to this is the Perspective option, which sets only the view orientation and projection to Rhino's pre-defined Perspective view and does not modify the view's construction plane.

Two Point Perspective

Plan

The Plan command sets the active view aligned down toward the current construction plane at 0,0, and sets the viewport projection to parallel.
