GUI Basic Tutorial Step 4

Step 4: Adjusting the Graphics Display

The geometry is drawn in the graphics window in perspective mode, by default from a viewing direction of the +z axis. This view can now be adjusted to verify the proper orientation of the geometry just created.

The following button clicks apply for 3-button mice (these are the default GUI settings):

left will pick when the mouse is over an entity. Left click will also pan when held down.
middle will rotate
right will show a context menu when an entity is selected. Right click will zoom when no entity is selected.

Mouse button behavior can be customized from the Tools-Options menu for use with non 3-button mice.

Use the mouse buttons to make the display look like the figure below.
