Orient ribbon group

Use the Home tool to return the orientation of your design to the default, trimetric view. You can customize the Home view to show your design with any orientation, location, and zoom level. |
|
|
Click the Plan View tool to display a head-on view of the sketch grid or the select plane or planar face. |

You can use the Spin tool to re-orient your design in any direction. Spinning your design allows you to view it from any angle. |

|
Use the Pan tool to move your design within the Design window. |

Use the Zoom tool to display your design closer or farther away in the Design window. You can zoom the design to fill the Design window, zoom into an area, or zoom in or out a preset amount. |
