Orthogonal Plan View


In V106 the default plan view (mode 5) has been changed to an orthogonal view. The previous view mode (perspective view) is still available as view mode 6.

In orthogonal view, the view projection is the same as map - ie you never see the sides of objects, and object edges are shown according to their x and y positions, regardless of their vertical position.

Compare the two views below:

On the left is the new orthogonal mode, on the right is the old perspective mode (now mode 6)

Orthogonal mode is often easier to use, especially when trying to manipulate objects at different elevations, and terrain points with large elevations.
