🔥Feature Guide
Perspective
-
⚡View Cam
- Explanation: Switches the view to the active camera, giving you a clear perspective of what the camera will capture.
- Usage Example: Use "View Cam" to check your scene from the camera’s viewpoint before rendering. This helps ensure your framing and composition are accurate.
-
⚡Cam to View
- Explanation: Moves the camera to align with the current viewport view, making it easy to set the camera position from any chosen angle.
- Usage Example: Find a desirable angle in the viewport, then use "Cam to View" to lock that perspective as the camera’s position.
-
⚡Lock Cam to View
- Explanation: Locks the camera to the viewport so that camera adjustments happen as you move the view.
- Usage Example: Activate "Lock Cam to View" to adjust camera positioning effortlessly by moving the viewport, making precise framing easier during setup.
- ⚡Persp / Ortho
- ⚡Explanation: Switches the viewport between perspective and orthographic views, impacting visual depth.
- ⚡Usage Example: Toggle to orthographic view for precise alignments, then back to perspective for natural 3D depth while modeling or positioning objects.
Tools
-
⚡Disable Selection
- Explanation: Disables selection for currently selected objects, preventing accidental selection while working in other areas.
- Usage Example: Use "Disable Selection" to keep background elements unselectable while you work on other parts of the model, reducing distractions.
-
⚡Reactivate Selections
- Explanation: Re-enables selection for all previously disabled objects, restoring full interactivity. This button also shows the number of items currently disabled, displayed in parentheses (e.g., "Reactivate Selections (3)").
- Usage Example: After working on a specific area, use "Reactivate Selections" to make all objects selectable again, resuming normal interaction with the entire scene.
-
⚡Local / Global
- Explanation: Toggles between local and global view modes. In local mode, only selected objects remain visible, hiding the rest of the scene.
- Usage Example: Use "Local/Global" to isolate specific objects for focused work, similar to using the / key on the numpad, which is helpful in detailed or complex scenes.
- ⚡Full View / Median Point
-
⚡Explanation:
- Full View Toggle: This function toggles full view mode, maximizing workspace by hiding unnecessary UI elements, similar to pressing the . key on the numpad. It provides an unobstructed view of the scene, which is particularly useful for adjusting compositions or inspecting details.
- Median Point Centering: When used with selected objects, this function centers the camera based on your selection. If a single item is selected, the camera centers directly on that item. If multiple items are selected, the camera rotation centers around the median point of the selection, allowing smooth and balanced navigation around all selected items.
- ⭐ Usage Example: Use "Full View" to remove distractions and focus on your scene. When working with multiple selected objects, the "Median Point" function keeps the camera rotation centered, so you can easily navigate around all selected items without any falling out of view.
👀 View Orientation Tools (Up, Bottom, Left, Right, Front, Back)
- Explanation: These orientation buttons allow you to quickly switch between different viewing angles in the viewport, giving you a clear perspective from any side of the object. With a single click, you can view the model from the top, bottom, front, back, or sides. These views are particularly useful for precise alignments and detailed inspection of each part of the object.
- Usage Example: Use the view buttons to ensure your model is correctly positioned and aligned. For example, clicking Front switches the camera to a front view, making it easier to work with symmetry and positioning. Selecting Top adjusts the view to look down from above, ideal for observing the layout of a scene from a bird’s-eye perspective.
