The angles must be positive. The direction angle indicates the front of the
view, and the magnitude angle determines how far the view rolls.
Camera
Specifies a new camera position by rotating the camera about the target point.
Two angles determine the amount of rotation.
Camera Location Sets the camera's position based on the specified point.
Enter Angle from the XY Plane Sets the camera's position at an angle above
or below the XY plane. An angle of 90 degrees looks down from above, and
an angle of -90 looks up from below. A camera angle of 0 degrees places the
camera parallel to the XY plane of the user coordinate system (UCS).
Toggle (Angle In) Switches between two angle input modes. Entering an
angle at the Command prompt locks the cursor movement so you see only
the positions available for that angle. Toggle unlocks the cursor movement
for the angle, and you can use the cursor to rotate the camera.
Enter Angle in XY Plane from X Axis Sets the position at an angle in the XY
plane relative to the X axis of the current UCS. This angle measures from -180
to 180 degrees. A rotation angle of 0 degrees looks down the X axis of the UCS
toward the origin.
The illustration shows the camera rotating to the left from its initial position,
leaving its angle from the XY plane unchanged.
