Scripting

See also: FreeCAD Scripting Basics.

To change the active view to trimetric 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()
