The Std ViewTop command changes the direction of the camera in the active 3D view to match the direction of the negative Z axis.

Arrow 2 points in the direction of the top view

There are several ways to invoke the command:
- Press the Std ViewTop button.
- Select the View → Standard views → Top option from the menu.
- Select the Standard views → Top option from the 3D view context menu.
- Use the keyboard shortcut: 2.

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