Add a camera

Procedure

1. Click Add camera in the Camera section of the ribbon bar.A camera is added to your scene at the origin of its direct parent.

2. You can change the position of the camera by changing the position of the frame's origin.

Note

The camera follows standard 3D graphics conventions, where the camera points (looks) in the negative Z direction (-Z) and the up direction aligns with the positive Y-axis.

Moving camera

In Orientation mode, select the mode's Angles. You can set the position of the camera and its orientation in the 3D scene in the same way as any other 3D objects. The orientation controls the direction in which the camera points.

Tracking camera

In Orientation mode, select the mode's Target. You must set the position of the camera in the 3D scene. Two extra properties are displayed:

• The Center is the position of the point at which the camera is pointing
  
  The Roll angle allows you to set the orientation of the camera against the vertical axis.
