Navigation

In Hull Viewer, you can apply three types of navigation:

• Spin
• Walk
• Orbit

There are 14 built-in views:

Top view
Bottom view
SB view
PS view
Aft view
Fore view
Aft SB Top view
Fore SB Top view
Fore PS Top view
Aft PS Top view
Aft SB Bottom view
Fore SB Bottom view
Fore PS Bottom view
Aft PS Bottom view

View > Projection > Top view, View > Projection > Bottom view, etc.

The last 4 views (bottom views) result in the model being put upside down. This way the lighting (that is usually from top) is better.

Press F5 to refresh the screen. Refreshing centers the model and puts it back into the default view (Aft SB Top view). The entire block is shown after the refresh, even when only certain part(s) of the block were shown originally.

Zoom

You can zoom in on an area using the zoom menu bar option View > Zoom > Box, or by pressing the speed bar icon . You can select a rectangular area in the graphical window to zoom in on.

Another way of zooming is the menu: View > Zoom > 500%, 200%, and so on.

You can also use the mouse wheel for zooming in and zooming out.
