How to view from a specific angle

Hi,

I wanted to view my model from certian angle in Flux, for example,

X=45deg, Y=45deg and z=135deg.

Someone please explain to me how to relate these to the option of view direction that flux offered.

Thanks,

Jerome.

    From what the labels say, it should be the following :

    -xyz coordinate of the camera position in the domain. you can imagine the camera position as a point in the domain

    -target point means in which direction is pointing the camera. Think of this as a vector from the first point to this point. You can't enter directly angles but only a vector defined by two points.

    -Camera rotation is rotating the view in the same plane, like when you rotate the view with the mouse by left clicking away from the model

    -zoom scale as it says is a zoom on this where 1= to the view of the whole model

    Thanks!

    Just curious, this is the only way to do in Flux right?

    I think it would be really great if Flux have the feature like the Hyperworks has.

    Today it is the only way. Flux as a whole is being migrated step by step towards the SimLab environment. Unfortunately the cube for the views is not in SimLab like in HyperWorks but there are options to save views for instance which might come handy in the near future.
