Set Viewport Camera

Viewport Camera
Description:
The Set Viewport Camera (Display > Set Viewport
Camera)
submenu allows you to choose the camera for the current viewport. All
cameras besides the perspective camera are orthagonal. For all
cameras except the perspective camera and the free orthographic camera,
view rotation is disabled.
The different cameras you can choose from are: Free
Perspective, Free Ortho ("ortho" meaning orthographic projection, as in
objects further away from the camera won't be made smaller to adjust
for perspective), Top Ortho, Left Ortho, Right Ortho, Front Ortho, Back
Ortho, and Bottom Ortho.
Notes:
-When more than one
viewport is onscreen at once, only the active viewport's camera is
changed.
-There is only one of each type of camera. Multiple viewports with the
same camera setting will not have independent position and rotation
controls.
-Camera options can
be edited in the Display Options (Options > Display Options...)
dialog.
- You can set a background image to use as a modeling guide for top,
bottom, front, back, left, and right orthographic cameras using the Set Viewport Image command.
