====== Views Settings ======

This page documents the different 3DM Viewer Views Settings. Depending the available resources in the workspace, the different setting options may vary. \\

===== All Views =====

**Display viewing direction label** Display the wind direction to which the views are aimed. The label is displayed under the view action menu.

===== 3D View =====

**Display Base Map in 3D:** Display the base map in the 3D view(s). The base map appears on the Reference Ground Height.\\
**Drape Base Map on selected Terrain:** Add 3D rendering to the base map. The z-values used for this are based on the chosen terrain model.
**Stereo View Type:** Choose from different stereo techniques to display the 3D View.\\
  * Stereo Anaglyph
  * Stereo Side-By-Side
  * Stereo Side-By-Side (RHF)
  * Stereo Side-By-Side (RVF)
  * Stereo Top-Bottom
  * Stereo Side-By-Side (RHVF)

===== Image Views =====

**Overlay Point Cloud on Image:** Enable the display of the Point Cloud on the Image view(s). \\
**Overlay Mesh on Image:** Enable the display of Mesh resources on the Image View(s).\\
**Display timestamp:** Display the timestamp linked to the opened image in the Image View(s). \\
**Display photo-id:** Display the photo id linked to the opened image in the Image View(s). \\
**Display resource name:** Display the source resource name of the opened image in the Image View(s). \\
**Get alternative images:** Retrieve the list of optional alternative images when moving or adding a new Image View. \\
**Display photo positions at all times:** Permanently display the photo positions in the Image view(s). Not only when hovering over the position.\\
**Play-through speed:** Set the speed for the Image Play-through option.\\
**Play-through quality:** Set the quality for the Image Play-through option.\\
**Overlay Image Annotations:** Enable the display of the Image Annotation .xml files in the mapping resources on the Image view(s).\\
**Overlay Image Annotation Tags:** Enable the display of the Image Annotation Tags .xml files in the mapping resources on the Image view(s).\\
**Open Image from 3D View:** Choose the selection behavior that is taken into account when opening an Image from 3D View.\\
  * Use Focus Coordinate only
  * Use Focus Coordinate and Direction
  * Use View Position & Focus Coordinate

===== MM Planar and Spherical Image View =====

**Maximum View Depth Annotations and Resources:** Option to adjust the view depth visibility of the 3D annotations, point cloud, and vector resources on the spherical and MM Planar image view (distance from the photo position). \\
**Maximum Photo Search Distance:** Set the maximum distance around the view coordinate to open a new image. \\
**Maximum Time Offset Point Cloud:** Set the maximum time difference (1-10-infinite seconds) between the photo position timestamp and the on-image overlayed point cloud points.\\
**Open best planar photo by:** Choose if the best planar image is to open taken by Spatial Distance or Pixel Distance.\\
**Open Image From Spherical View:** Choose if the Relative or Absolute Direction should be kept when opening an Image.\\

===== Aerial Planar Image View =====

**Maximum View Depth Annotations and Resources:** Options to adjust the view depth visibility of the 3D annotations, point cloud and vector resources on the Aerial planar image view (distance from the photo position). \\
**Maximum Photo Search Distance:** Set the maximum distance around the view coordinate to open a new image. \\
**Open best planar photo by:** Choose if the best planar image is taken by Spatial Distance or Pixel Distance.\\
**Rotate Image to force North up:** Choose if all, none, or only Nadir, Aerial planar images should be rotated north up.\\
**Open Automatically new best Image Near Edge of current Image:** When enabled, a new planar image will be opened in the Planar View Mode if the current image is dragged to the side. Drag to the left and a new planar image that is located on the right of the current image will be opened. \\

===== Oblique Planar Image View =====

**Maximum View Depth Annotations and Resources:** Options to adjust the view depth visibility of the 3D annotations, point cloud and vector resources on the Oblique planar image view (distance from the photo position). \\
**Maximum Photo Search Distance:** Set the maximum distance around the view coordinate to open a new image. \\
