Three viewport pages (normal viewports, page viewports, and detail viewports) contain information and controls that are relative to that viewport.
General information
The viewport title
displays in the top left corner of a viewport
.
The viewport
size in pixels.
Sets the viewport to a parallel projection.
Parallel views are also called orthogonal views in some systems. In a parallel view, all the grid lines are parallel to each other, and identical objects look the same size, regardless of where they are in the view.
Sets the viewport to a perspective projection.
In a perspective view, grid lines converge to a vanishing point. This provides the illusion of depth in the viewport. Perspective projection makes objects farther away look smaller.
35mm camera lens
When the projection is set to perspective, you can change the lens length of the camera. A “normal” lens length for a 35mm camera is 43 to 50mm.
