EYE FRAME [Part] [Mode]

            

The command EYE FRAME applies a shift and zoom to the model in order to fit the model comfortably inside the frame of the current viewport. It is also possible to specify that a specific part of the model is `framed'.

This command has associated with it an automatic mode whereby each successive view will be `framed' in this way until the automatic mode is switched off. There is a small overhead in computing time when running in the automatic mode, and the user may wish to leave the automatic framing off, which is the default condition, and to use the command `EYE FRAME' on a one-off basis as and when he wishes a picture to be centred and scaled to fit within its viewport.


Part Mode Comments
OFF Turns off automatic framing.
Partname [AUTO] FEMGEN only. Frames to a specified line,
surface, body or set. The automatic mode may be
selected.
ALL [AUTO] Frames the whole model (this is the default). The
automatic mode may be selected.
WORK-BOX [AUTO] FEMGEN only. Frames to the FEMGEN work box.
The automatic mode may be selected.
