HFSS15: Modifying the View Orientation

To change the orientation of the view (the viewing direction) in the view window:

1. Click View>Modify Attributes>Orientation.

A dialog box with orientation settings appears. It includes a table of names of six basic orientations (Top, Bottom, Right, Left, Front, Back), any additional orientations that you have added, and a section for adding new orientations. The table includes columns that show the input angles, and the equivalent vector components.

2. Apply a default orientation to the view or create and apply a new orientation.

3. Click Apply to View for the selected view to appear in the view window.

You can use the Reset View Orientation button to restore the view to the original angle.

4. Click Make Default if you want the selected viewing direction to be the initial viewing direction when a 3D Modeler window is opened, either in the current project or future projects.

5. Click Close to dismiss the dialog box.

The orientation you set will be saved with the design. New orientations assigned to other designs after this point will not affect this orientation.
