Perspective view

[bill.92885]

Does anyone know how to change the size of an image in perspective view? Every time I create a 3D perspective view they are always the same size. I know it's possible in 3D view to change the scale making the image larger but the vanishing points are all wrong.

Does anyone know how to change the size of an image in perspective view? In the perspective view, click on the crop boundary, and a button showing the current size will appear in the Option Bar - click on it, and you'll be able to change the size.

All that does is change the size of the crop box, the image remains the same size.

I'm not sure what you are asking. But if you click on the crop boundary and look on the options bar, you will see an image size in inches and you can change it there. Or are you talking about zooming in making it larger?

All that does is change the size of the crop box, the image remains the same size.If you place that view on a sheet, you will see that the overall size of the view has changed. Is that what you want? If not, please describe further - do you want to zoom in?

I'm talking about making the image larger on the page. Normally when I create a 3D image an drop it onto a 24"x36" sheet it takes up approximately 1/16 of the sheet. What I'm looking for is to size the image so it will take up 1/4 of the sheet. For instance if I had a cover sheet I'd like the image to take up a good portion of the sheet instead of looking like a postage stamp.

I think you want to check the "Scale (locked proportions)" box when modifying the size of the perspective view.

The default is to change the field of view.

That should make the physical image bigger, not change what is seen.

Hope this is what you are looking for.
