Viewing the Camera Icon
At any time, you can change the view direction of the scene. By default, the scene is viewed using the Camera view, but by using the View, Direction menu options, you can view the scene from the Front, Top, Right, Back, Bottom, and Left views. There is also an option to return the view to the Camera view.
Note
The View, Direction menu options are only available in Anime Studio Pro.
When one of these other views is selected, the camera is shown as a triangle with an arrow projected from it. Figure 25.6 shows the Front view of the scene, making the camera icon visible. When you use the various camera tools while viewing the project from one of the different directions, you’ll see the camera icon move.
Tip
You can tell when a different view is being used because the working area border isn’t visible.
Caution
If the scene objects haven’t been rotated and are viewed from the top, left, right, or bottom, they will appear as a single straight line.
Note
The View, Reset menu command has no effect on camera movements. This command is only used to reset actions done with the Workspace tools.
