Navigation

Orbit

Reference

Mode: All modes
Menu: View ‣ Navigation ‣ Orbit
Shortcut: MMB, Numpad2, Numpad4, Numpad6, Numpad8.

Rotate the view around the point of interest. Click and drag MMB on the viewport’s area. If you start in the middle of the area and move up and down or left and right, the view is rotated around the middle of the area.

Holding Alt while dragging locks to axes.

To change the viewing angle in discrete steps, use Numpad8 and Numpad2 or use Numpad4 and Numpad6 to rotate the scene around the global Z axis from your current point of view. Finally Numpad9 switches to the opposite side of the view.

If You Get Lost

If you get lost in 3D space (which is not uncommon) Frame All and Frame Selected can be used to show the contents of your scene.

Zoom Region

Reference

Mode: All modes
Menu: View ‣ Navigation ‣ Zoom Region…
Shortcut: Shift-B

The Zoom Region tool allows you to specify a rectangular region and zoom in so that the region fills the 3D Viewport.

You can access this through via the shortcut Shift-B, then LMB click and drag a rectangle to zoom into.

Alternatively you can zoom out using the MMB.

Dolly View

Reference

Mode: All modes
Menu: View ‣ Navigation ‣ Dolly View…
Shortcut: Shift-Ctrl-MMB

In most cases its sufficient to zoom the view to get a closer look at something, however, you may notice that at a certain point you cannot zoom any closer.

This is because Blender stores a view-point that is used for orbiting and zooming. It works well in many cases, but sometimes you want to move the view-point to a different place. This is what Dolly supports, allowing you to transport the view from one place to another.

You can dolly back and forth by holding down Shift-Ctrl and dragging with MMB.

Frame All

Reference

Mode: All modes
Menu: View ‣ Frame All
Shortcut: Home

Moves the viewpoint so that you can see all objects.

Frame Selected

Reference

Mode: All modes
Menu: View ‣ Frame Selected
Shortcut: NumpadPeriod

Moves the viewpoint so that you can see the selection.
