Setting the View Direction

Use the ViewDirection command to set the viewing direction to the Model.

The drawing entities display as if viewed from the specified viewing point in Model workspace.

To set the view point:

  1. Type ViewDirection at the command prompt.
  2. Type the new view point, for example, 1,1,1.

    The view point creates a vector to the origin of the coordinate system (0,0,0), which defines the direction from which the drawing is viewed.

To rotate the view point:

  1. Type ViewDirection.
  2. Specify the View angle option.
  3. Type an angle:
    1. In the XY plane from the X axis, for example, 45.
    2. Above or below the target, for example, 33.
