    User can use the isometric cube to create exterior or interior elevation views from 6 default directions to view the model from different locations and perspectives. Use the cube at the bottom right (highlighted in red below) to choose front, top, bottom, right, left, or back view of the model to view the model at a particular elevation.

     A compass is provided on the viewer to show the orientation of the model.
