changing the angle of view in position locator?

[br0604bom]

presently I am going into 'walk' to get a good view of the model, and in the position locator I can move the red dot ok to the position I would like,

what I would like to find out is how to change the width of view in the position locator, as the small hand only seems to be moving the field of view and not widening or narrowing it

 

I am not sure if this is the best way to set field of vision!!

 

thanks very much to anyone who has an answer to this

I take I am completely way off the mark with this one?

 

does anyone have any comment?

Hy bro604

If you want to accurate more precisely your field of view, the best way in my opinion, it's to change it in your camera properties

see picture

You can set up your field of view during the camera placement

Check in command line

Command: _camera

Current camera settings: Height=0.00 Lens Length=50.00 mm

Specify camera location : Enter a value or specify a point

Specify target location:

Enter an option

[ ?/ Name/ LOcation/ Height/ Target/ LEns/ Clipping/ View/ ]:

choose Lens type "L" and enter

Specify lens length in mm : give your field of view

Enter an option

[ ?/ Name/ LOcation/ Height/ Target/ LEns/ Clipping/ View/ ]:

Bye

Pasca
