Operation

SAME AS VIEW:

Indicate an existing view in the drawing, and the projection will be the same as in the indicated view.

POINT VECTOR:

Indicate a point in the projection plane, and a vector defining the normal to that plane.

THREE POINTS:

Indicate a point in the projection plane, and two vectors defining the U-axis and the V-axis of the projection plane.

TWO CURSOR POSITIONS:

Two cursor indications in an existing view defines the U-axis of the new projection, the V-vector is the same as the normal to the projection indicated. A third cursor indication defines the normal, and thereby the observer side, of the new projection plane.

3D ROTATE:

Starting from an existing view the user defines the new projection by rotating around the co-ordinate axes. This can be done either in predefined steps, or in arbitrary steps via keyboard input. The resulting projection is shown with a small co-ordinate system in the drawing.

PREDEFINED PROJECTION:

There is a possibility to define 5 standard projections in the default handling, and each of these is displayed and is accessible as a direct choice.
