Switching between 2D and 3D views
For example, if you enter walls in a 2D view, then open a 3D view (for example, to get an overview in 3D) and then want to switch back to 2D view, it is best to do the following:
Switch between views (by default)
- Right-click on the desired view in the project manager (located in the right area of the cadvilla window) (in our example 2D view)
- In the context menu that follows, select “Set as current element (CTRL + click)”.
Optional for faster switching / switching between existing views, cadvilla has its own shortcut combination.
To do this, click in the project manager with the key combination
CTRL + left mouse click on the desired view.
Switch between views using tabs
If you are working with tabs in your project, you can switch the view by clicking directly on the respective tab (see arrow). Working with tabs is activated by clicking the red marked icon.
General information about changing views
In any case it is wrong to “switch” views, for example by repeatedly clicking on 2D or 3D, unless you definitely need another view (e.g. to work in 2 windows arranged side by side).
To close existing views, first activate the view with one of the options described above and then click on the close symbol (x) in the top right of the view window.
Further information on switching views with video instructions can be found here.
