| Auto Orient - Zoom to Feature Minimum Distance | autoorient_zoomfeature_min_distance | 200 | Any integer | Applies to Views that use the Auto Orient 'Zoom to Features'. It can be used in cases where the view zooms to a single feature or closely grouped features so the camera position does not end up too close to the model to be able to tell where the feature is on the part. When set to a larger value, the camera will stop at the set position regardless of what would otherwise be dictated by the zoom on the feature. The value represents millimeters. Documents set to Inches automatically re-calculates accordingly during resolve. |
