Context:
Use the rotate tool
from the
View Manipulation toolbar
to rotate the view within the viewport. Hold Shift while using
the rotate tool to access the alternate rotate mode. The alternate mode rotates
the camera about itself instead of rotating it about the view center or the
selected rotation center. The alternate mode is most useful when you use movie
camera mode and position the camera inside of the model so that the model is
surrounding the camera (for more information, see
The rotate view tool).
You can also specify a point in each viewport or select a location in each
viewport to use as the center of rotation. Using the Auto-fit after
rotations option in the Graphics Options dialog
box, you can control whether or not
Abaqus/CAE
rescales your model to fit the viewport as you rotate.
Note:
You cannot rotate X–Y plots.
If the current viewport is linked to other viewports,
Abaqus/CAE
also rotates objects within all linked viewports in your session. For more
information, see
Linking viewports for view manipulation.
