Hey Developers,

Today, we are proud to release the View Selector tool in Studio. You are now able to easily navigate to and between 14 views in 3D space to get the perfect view of your creation.

As shown in the video, you will also be able to move the View Selector anywhere you want in the 3D Viewport. Additionally, you can disable it by going to View – > View Selector in the Ribbon Bar.

Blessed be the cube. I love him.

I usually need to align to axes while building for symmetry and proportioning reasons and this will definitely help.

Ah Christmas in March. Love It! Makes viewing a model on the side or top now straight. People who’s top on straight camera views will love this. Another amazing update! :heart:

Nice small update.

My school uses Autodesk Inventor and this feature is just like the one they have to help navigate your object your creating.

Very helpful!

Is there a way to keep XYZ axis without using the View Selector cube? I previously had the XYZ axis available so that I could reference world directions. I still want to be able to do this without using or seeing the cube.
