Model
Navigation
To thoroughly inspect your models, you must learn how to
reorient the model, zoom in and out, and pan. There are several
methods to navigate a model.
This toolbar is another
example of a modal
menu, where the icon
changes each time you
click a different Quick
View icon.
• The Quick Views toolbar contains predefined model
orientations enabling you to view the model from commonly
used orientations. Figure 1–16 shows the available Quick
Views.
