welcome to the BRL-CAD User Commands page for setview, bestie — this is the one that spins ur MGED view around by the angles u give it. ✨

🌸 NAME 🌸

setview — sets the current view in MGED by specifying rotation angles (in degrees) about the x, y, and z axes. that’s the whole assignment 💖

🌀 SYNOPSIS 🌀

setview {x-angle y-angle z-angle}

🎀 DESCRIPTION 🎀

okay so setview sets the current view in MGED by specifying rotation angles (in degrees) about the x, y, and z axes. the rotations are performed about the z axis first, then the y axis, then the x axis — that order is the moment, no cap. 🔥

and the iconic little shortcut: setview 0 0 0 is a synonym for press top. periodt. 👑

bestie, the angles are in degrees — do not come at me with radians 🙈

🦋 EXAMPLES 🦋

this example is all about using setview to set the current view according to the rotation angles u specified. okurrr. 💫

⭐ Example 1. Set the current view in MGED. ⭐

mged>setview 90 180 90

sets the current view to that set by ae 0 0. slay. 💅
