Oblique View
This page describes how to open, use, pan and navigate on an oblique image view.
Open View from Map 2D
On opening of an Oblique Project, the oblique views will open with the focus on the center of the Project.
If the center of the map contains oblique images, they will be opened in each oblique view.
By default the Oblique views will be shown in the Oblique Tab with horizontal layout, this can be changed in the Preferences of Oblique.
