Contextual Views

By default, the 3D Viewport only shows the scene from one viewpoint. By using Quad Views, you can see it from multiple viewpoints at the same time, which gives more context about the changes you’re making.

Toggling Quad View will split the 3D Viewport into four views: three orthographic side views and one user perspective view.

Notitie

Quad View is different from splitting the area and aligning the views manually. In Quad View, the four views are still part of a single 3D Viewport, so that they share the same display options.
