Perspective Mode

Two cameras are available for use with the 3D display:

On the Vizex tab, in the Viewpoint group: Click Perspective Mode to toggle between Perspective mode and Orthogonal camera mode (this will change the Projection setting on the 3D tab of the Display Limits form).

The Perspective camera emulates the human eye, that is, objects that are further away appear smaller. This is the most commonly used camera.

The Orthogonal camera produces parallel projections and thus does not create a distortion with distance. Use it when it is important to get an exact idea of measurements, which would be distorted with the Perspective camera.
