Description

The Std ViewIsometric command realigns the camera in the active 3D view to obtain an isometric view. But the view will only be isometric if it is in orthographic mode.

The axis cross and a cube in isometric view

Usage

  1. There are several ways to invoke the command:
    • Press the Std ViewIsometric button.
    • Select the View → Standard views → Axonometric → Isometric option from the menu.
    • Select the Standard views → Isometric option from the 3D view context menu.
    • Use the keyboard shortcut: 0.

Scripting

See also: FreeCAD Scripting Basics.

To change to isometric view use the viewIsometric method of the ActiveView object. This method is not available if FreeCAD is in console mode.
