Open View ( Modeling > press Ctrl + o )

Tool summary :

• Lists all views in the model. Select the view that you want to open.
• A direct alternative to Open View is to, in the model with the selection filter set to ' Default ' or ' Legacy Default ' or ' All ', double-click the name of a straight grid line associated with a view. Doing so will open that view (grid X in the above example).
  
  

  Double-clicking a grid bubble is an alternative way to open a view.

• When you change to a different view, you change the orientation with which you view the model.

   Step-by-step instructions :

Open View in Modeling closes your current view and lets you reopen the saved version of that view or any other erection view that you or another user has created in your current Project.

1 . While in Modeling , invoke Open View using any one (1) of the following methods:

Method 1 : Click the Open View icon, which is pictured above. The icon can be taken from the group named ' File -- Views/Grids ' and placed on a toolbar (classic) or the ribbon (lightning).

Method 2 : If " Modeling layout style " is ' Classic ', you can use the menu system to choose File > View/Grids > Open View .

Method 3, 4 or 5 : Open View can also be configured to be invoked using a keyboard shortcut , the context menu , or a mode . For the lightning interface, this configuration is done using Customize Interface . The default keyboard shortcut is Ctrl + o .

2 . The Select One Erection View dialog opens. On it is a list of all erection views that have been created. The name of your current view (the view that was open in step 1) is selected by default.

Alternative 2 : Double-click the view that you want to open. Go to step 3.

Alternative 3 : Press " Cancel " to keep everything as it was before step 1. Do not continue.

3 . The selection dialog closes, and your computer screen redraws to show the view that you selected in step 2. That view is now your current view.
