Dialog Box Options:

Set Viewing Angles

From

Specifies viewing angles.

X Axis

Specifies the angle from the X Axis.

XY Plane

Specifies the angle from the XY Plane.
You can also use the sample image to specify viewing angles. The black arm indicates the new angle. The gray arm indicates the current angle. Specify an angle by selecting the inner region of the circle of half-circle. Selecting the bounded outer regions rounds off the angle to the value displayed in that region. If you select the inner arc or an area inside it, the angle is not rounded off and the result may be a fractional number.

Set to Plan View

Sets the viewing angles to display the plan view relative to the selected coordinate system.
