The Std ViewTrimetric command realigns the camera in the active 3D view to obtain a trimetric view. For a truly trimetric view the 3D view must be in orthographic mode, but the command also works if the view is in perspective mode.

Usage

Scripting

See also: FreeCAD Scripting Basics.

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

import FreeCADGui

FreeCADGui.ActiveDocument.ActiveView.viewTrimetric()
FreeCADGui.ActiveDocument.ActiveView.getViewDirection()
