Toggles one or two standard lights on in the scene. Turns on any lights you may have added to the scene via the Lights primitive. The use of Orthographic View is well married with the use of Move | Free, allowing you to freely move selected items while automatically constraining such movement to only two directions at a time. This can offer an advantage when moving or editing geometry that, for example 'bulges out' towards the viewer. Since there is essentially no single point of view (as in perspective) all lines and faces are seen in their true lengths and shapes - provided they lie on a plane that is at right angles to the viewing direction. Orthographic views are the same as those traditionally used for engineering or technical drawing purposes – i.e. VIEW | ORTHOGRAPHIC VIEW (O) Toggles orthographic/perspective views on/off. If there is no selection, the distance will be chosen so that all objects will be visible. VIEW | FRAME (Shift+A) View | Frame works similarly to Aim except that it adjusts the distance to the selection so that the selection will be visible in the Wings window. Then when working on the feet select a face there and Aim there, and the point of focus will be on the foot. Then all camera movement will be centered on the head. When working on the head, select a face on the head and Aim. This is very handy when doing detailed work and for doing high aspect ratio stuff, such as a giraffe.
If there is no selection, the aim point will be reset to the origin (0, 0, 0). Then when you pan and zoom in on the selected the item, it will stay centered in the work space. VIEW | AIM (A) Points camera directly at selected objects, faces, edges or vertices. VIEW | RESET VIEW (R) Resets the camera to default location and zoom.
This can be very useful when trying to position edges to match up on the inside and outside of a wall, for example, prior to using Bridge to cut in a window. Lets you see the wireframe from both front and back in wireframe mode. Handy for planning how things will be moved, as a visual aid if rotating faces around an edge, and to see the normals on an imported model which may have some or all of the normals inverted. This can be useful for very large models, as some otherwise fast graphics cards display edges slowly.Ī toggle that shows/hides the normals of every face, edge or vertex (depending on which selection mode you are in) of the model, as a short thick blue line. In flat shaded mode, toggles the edges on/off. Bounding Boxes can be very useful for proportionally scaling and moving a large imported object to a desired volume and position, and can also be used as reference points with vector, magnet, and “snap-to” operations. Wings can save a single vertex or single edge as a bounding box. If set on, a dashed wireframe outline shows the extent of the box. Shows/hides the bounding box set in the Tools Menu.

� Section 5.1 The Menus WINGS3D USER MANUAL VIEW | SHOW SAVED BB This wire on smoothed view can be helpful to see how edges affect the overall form of the subject while modeling. Tab will show you a temporarily smooth-shaded version of your model which you can then overlay with the wireframe by hitting the W key. This is a handy toggle to use in conjunction with the Tab key. VIEW | TOGGLE WIREFRAMED/SHADED (W) Toggles between wireframe and shaded This is sometimes referred to as a Wings render. In smooth shaded view the materials being used become visible. Toggles between smooth shaded view and solid view on your model. Sets the display mode to solid flat shading. If you want to extrude a face into the model, set your model to wireframe mode first and you will be able to see how far into the model you are going. Sets the view mode to shaded and performs one level of smoothing on a temporary basis so that you can see what your model will look like after smoothing. VIEW | WORKMODE (Tab) Toggles the display between work mode and smoothed mode. A unit can be whatever you want it to be. Each grid cell of the ground plane represents one "unit" in Wings. Toggles the ground plane visibility on/off. The View Menu contains functions that set and control how you view your work i.e. � WINGS3D USER MANUAL Section 5.1 The Menus 5.1.3 The View Menu Figure 40: The View Menu.
