A new button has been added to the View Control Bar that enables you to save and lock the
orientation of a 3D view. When a 3D view is locked, you can tag items in the view. You can zoom
and pan in a locked view but you cannot orbit the model.
The button menu has options for unlocking the view, to allow orbiting, and for returning
to the saved orientation. When you unlock a view, any tags applied in the view will not be dis-
played until it is returned to its saved orientation.
Another new button is for worksharing display options. This button contains a menu for con-
trolling the display of worksets based on the settings defined in your project.
The Settings option on this button menu takes you to the Worksharing Display Settings dia-
log box, where you can establish the colors used for the various options of worksharing display.
You can apply colors to worksets based on who owns them, whether they are up-to-date, or
simply by their name. Figure 1.8 shows the dialog box and settings for worksets colored by their
name. Notice that, in the Apply Colors column, you can choose to show a workset’s color in the
view by selecting its check box.
When you choose an option for worksharing display, a box will appear in the upper-left
corner of the drawing area, indicating the option being displayed, as shown in Figure 1.9. These
