Set Viewpoint From Surface Point

You can also set the viewpoint to look at a surface along its normal. This option should be quite familiar to CAD users as it is equivalent to the normal view options in many CAD packages.

To Set a Viewpoint From a Surface Point:

  1. From the View Control dropdown list select Set Viewpoint From Surface Point.

  2. At the prompt, click on the surface where you’d like to look. The surface normal direction will be used to set the view orientation.
