Creating Camera Views

Both the Vector Full Camera

tool and the Vector Floor Camera tool are used in the same way.

In floor plan view, select 3D> Create Vector View> Vector Full Camera

or the Vector Floor Camera . The pointer changes to a camera (

) with a crosshair marking the position of the pointer.

Click and drag a line to define the perspective.

Where your line begins is the camera's position.

The line that you drag defines the direction the camera is pointed.

The end of the line is the focal point of the view, the point the camera rotates around.

By default, the field of view is 45 degrees, which is similar to what the human eye sees or a 50mm camera lens.

When you release the mouse button, a view generates in a new window.

Click the Swap Views button to return to the floor plan view. A camera symbol displays in floor plan view.
