Set the view camera mode. First Person - The camera rotates left and right, up and down as if the user was standing in the view. Third Person - The model rotates as if the camera was orbiting in space. Lock Vertical Axis - When locked, horizontal movements of the mouse and the left/right arrow keys cause the model to rotate about the absolute vertical axis and up/down movements and arrow keys cause rotation about the current x axis of the view. When the vertical axis is not locked, all mouse movements and arrow keys cause rotation about the respective axis of the current view. This setting only applies to third person mode. |
