Set View

<Options>

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

Command-line options

CPlane

Sets the active view (camera, target, etc.) to the top, bottom, left, right, front, or back view of the current construction plane. The view's projection and construction plane do not change. 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.

Top

Sets the view to look at the Top of the current construction plane.

Bottom

Sets the view to look at the bottom of the current construction plane.

Front

Sets the view to look at the Front of the current construction plane.

Back

Sets the view to look at the back of the current construction plane.

Right

Sets the view to look at the Right of the current construction plane.

Left

Sets the view to look at the Left of the current construction plane.

World

Resets the active view (camera, target, etc.) to one of Rhino's pre-defined World views.

The named view options control if the view's projection and construction plane will be reset.

Top

Sets the view to look at the Top of the world view.

Bottom

Sets the view to look at the Bottom of the world view.

Front

Sets the view to look at the Front of the world view.

Back

Sets the view to look at the Back of the world view.

Right

Sets the view to look at the Right of the world view.

Left

Sets the view to look at the Left of the world view.

Perspective

Sets the view to look at a world view in perspective mode.

The Perspective option resets the projection when the Named views set projection option is enabled, but the construction plane always stays as it is.

Two Point Perspective

Sets the view to look at a world view in two-point perspective mode.
