Control the Field of View
You can define the area of the scene that can be viewed through the camera
in a 3D workspace only.
For the current viewpoint, you can move the FOV slider on the ribbon to
adjust the Horizontal Field of View. For previously saved viewpoints, you can
use the
Edit Viewpoint dialog box (page 692) to adjust the values for both
vertical and horizontal angles of view.
NOTE When you modify the Horizontal Field of View, the Vertical Field of View is
automatically adjusted, and vice versa to match the aspect ratio in Autodesk
Navisworks.
To control the horizontal field of view
Click Viewpoint tab Camera panel, and move the FOV slider to
control the cameras angle of view.
Moving the slider to the right produces a wider angle of view, and moving
the slider to the left produces a narrower, or more tightly focused, angle
of view.
Position and Focus Camera
You can adjust the cameras position and orientation in the scene.
Move Camera
For the current viewpoint, you can use the Position entry boxes on the ribbon
to move the camera position. For previously saved viewpoints, you can use
the
Edit Viewpoint dialog box (page 692) to adjust the camera values.
NOTE The Z coordinate values are not available in a 2D workspace.
To move camera numerically
1 Click the Viewpoint tab, and slide out the Camera panel.
2 Type in numerical values into the Position entry boxes to move the
camera by the amount entered.
