Setting up a camera - cont...

Hi Tracy,

remembering:

TARGET point refers to where you are looking.
CAMERA point refers to from where you are looking.

so, imagine that you are holding a photo camera, target point means the
center point of what you want to photograph, and camera point means
where you are (x and Y coords) and how fa from the ground you are (z
coord).

after that, you MUST save it like a view.

and in DR menu SIMULATION > Camera> you have to choose it.

I dont have DR on my computer, so I'm tryng to remember these steps, so
I hope that my memory is still working.

regards,
