Manipulate the 3D View

The 3D View can be manipulated using the functionality contained in the window itself and then reflect those changes back into the 2D View. The 3D View can be rotated and moved using the View manipulation buttons to the left of the display window.

The Viewfinder (the magenta box) can be interactively resized, repositioned and rotated. Resize and Rotate changes made to the Viewfinder give equivalent changes in the 2D View.

The Viewfinder represents the view that will be projected into the 2D View; that is, it can be imagined as a window through which a 2D snapshot of the 3D design can be taken.
