[Closed] Align viewport camera to the closest viewcube angle
Oct 13, 2017 3:53 pm
I don’t like clicking the viewcube to set the angle of the viewport camera but sometimes it nice to have, for example, a front/left view at the exact 45 degree angle, which clicking the viewcube corner gives you. I noticed that if you rotate your viewport camera normally with the mouse (ALT+MMB) the viewcube actually darkens what viewcube angle you are the closest to, as in every 45 degrees.
I was wondering if it is possible to manually snap the viewport camera to this highlighted viewcube angle using a maxscript? I checked the maxscript documentation for the viewcube but the only thing I can find is the “Snap to closest view” function which only works when you are rotating the viewport camera by dragging the actual viewcube.
