I believe that you must change the camera view manually using the mouse. But if you find another way, please tell us.

Hi Nandu,

The following CCL defines the camera view. Open a command editor and enter this CCL with the pivot point and Rotation setting you want.

CAMERA:Camera 1
Option = Pivot Point and Rotation
Pivot Point = 5, 0.5, 0.5
Rotation = -90, 0, 0
END

Regards,
Robin

P.S.: To see the CCL for a view, first save the view, then save the state to file and look for the view object in your state file (to make it even easier, save only the Camera object to the state file).

in the right bottom corner of the workspace you can see the refrence frame of your case data.
by clicking on each direction of that you can change the direction automatically.
