3D Window

3D creates a 3D Window of the current SIS Workspace Definition document.

Select View > Document Views > 3D.

The 3D tab is a contextual tab that is available only when viewing 3D data.

You can use the scroll bars to change the 3D viewing parameters.

Cadcorp SIS Desktop will draw a simplified image for speed when moving around the screen; the full quality image is displayed when you stop.

Change the viewing parameters dynamically

  • Press the left mouse button in the middle of the window.
  • Slide the cursor away from the middle. The further you slide from the middle, the faster the view changes.

You can use the + and - keyboard keys in a 3D window to zoom in and out respectively.
