View snap buttons

[airmap3d]

Hello all,

I think a good feature to add would be some 'view snaps'.  Just a few buttons on the toolbar that instantly take you to top view, side view (left and right), bottom view etc.

Cheers!

Hello airmap3d,

In the version 1.0.0 (pre-release) it is now possible to switch model view using number keys:

Top -> 7
Bottom -> Ctrl + 7

Right -> 3
Left -> Ctrl + 3

Front -> 1
Back -> Ctrl + 1

Rotate Up -> 8
Rotate Down -> 2
Rotate Left -> 4
Rotate Right -> 6

That's really good thanks!

Is this based on the Blender keyboard shortcuts, or do other apps use this system?

Anyway, Blender also uses Numpad 5 to toggle between perspective and orthographic views, which would also be pretty useful in PhotoScan!

Hello James,

This small feature was included in PhotoScan 1.0.0 build 1742.

Small, maybe, but much appreciated thanks!
