View Widget Help

The View Widget consists of an eye point, a "look at" point, and an up point (encompassing the up vector and the field of view). There is also a geometric representation of the viewing frustrum defined by the interface components. The primary use of the View Widget is to specify a camera view from within the data space--this is useful for producing animations and for better understanding and defining a view which is then shown in another window.

The user can independently adjust the eye point, the up vector, the field of view, the front clipping plane, and the back clipping plane (also the "look at" point).
