How to manipulate viewport in a precise way?

Hello, I would like to asked a question about saved views.

I am basically going through this Youtube tutorial as part of my architectural homework and would like to create a section plan like the one picture below. However, I am confused over how this person managed to create a view that is perfectly aligned with the building yet vertically tilted.

Is there something to do with playing with CPlane?

Thanks!

Hi @tsk00123,

Change the viewport to Two Point Perspective, then set the X position of both camera and target to the same value. Change the focal length of the camera to a wide angle setting.

In the example you show, the horizon line is high in the frame, meaning that either a perspective shift has been applied (not available in Rhino) or the image has been cropped from a larger picture to create that effect. If you want to emulate this in Rhino to exaggerate the perspective you can shear your entire model (or better a copy of it so you preserve the original).
