Hi! (I suppose this is one for Luc Adriaenssen) I’m trying to set up a fly-around animation, on a circle-shaped path centered around a set of objects. The end effect is a turntable, but I don’t want to animate the objects to turn around a common Z-axis ,like in this tutorial https://vimeo.com/1187…

Rhino’s views (as well as pictures) are a 2 dimensional representation of a 3 dimensional space. The image is crated by making a mathematical projection - Projection (mathematics) - Wikipedia This is either a central projection or a parallel projection. In a central projection the size of objects …

[image] Luc Adriaenssen: PS The image obtained for a parallel view by using the camera command is in my opinion confusing. It still looks very much like a central projection. Good observation. Any suggestion for a better image? In any case perhaps should be brought to the attention of Bongo …

Indeed, I was planning to create a Youtrack issue, but I didn’t had the time yet to figure out a better way to visualise the parallel projection. Luc

It’s not that hard. Instead of a pyramid we need a rectangular tube. All the handle points can remain. [image]
