Camera Tab (3D Model Container)
The Camera tab lets you control the camera perspective of the container.
Parameter Description
Camera X, Camera Y Set the horizontal and vertical position of the focal point of the
camera (the point on the image plane at which the camera is
pointed).
Distance Sets the model camera’s distance from the container.
Decrease this setting to place the camera closer to the container to
exaggerate the perspective on portions of the container that are
closest to the camera.
Parameter Description
Camera Model Determines what type of model is used in adjusting the camera
perspective of the object. Each of the three choices has its own
controls.
Position Lets you adjust the camera perspective by setting the X,Y, and Z
position of the camera's focal point, the distance between the camera
and the object, and by rotating the camera around the X, Y, and Z axis.
• Camera X, Camera Y, and Camera Z set the position of the focal
point of the camera (the point on the image plane at which the
camera is pointed) along the X, Y, and Z axis respectively.
• Distance sets the model camera's distance from the object.
Increasing this setting places the camera closer to the object,
exaggerating the perspective on portions of the object that are
closest to the camera.
• Tumble, Spin, and Rotate rotate the focal point around the X, Y,
and Z axes respectively. Tumble, Spin, and Rotate can be animated
over values greater than 360° in order to make the focal point
complete more than one full revolution.
