Defining new shortcut keys for "Set view"

In earlier versions, you could Set views using the shortcut menu in the animation window.

You can still find most of these views on the shortcut menu. In addition, you can now define shortcut keys for these views. You can then use the keyboard to set these views in viewports with the Animation view type. You certainly know some of the predefined shortcut keys from earlier versions.

• Starting position - Alt+Pos1
• Previous camera position - Page up
• Next camera position - Page down
• Enlarge viewing angle
• Reduce viewing angle

Note: As you can define several camera paths for a single project in Allplan 2015, Starting position, Previous camera position and Next camera position always apply to the current camera path. Consequently, they have an effect only if you have defined a camera path.
