Orthographic camera in 3D View

When you view a scene with an orthographic camera, the objects will appear at their original size regardless of the distance from the camera.

Perceiving the relative position of the camera from the objects of the scene

The navigation with orthographic camera is managed by tuning the orthoWidth (that is the width of the view frustum).

If you move forward or zoom, the orthoWidth decreases so the scene appears closer and the reverse is also true.

Sync to the actual size of the 3D Items

The Go to Item function resets the orthoWidth so that the position and the size of the focused item is the same in both the orthographic and the perspective camera.

Note: For a good user experience, we recommend not using mouse pick as orbit target with orthographic camera.
