Summary | 0003637: At FreeCAD startup; Add options to change the initial camera view and window size in Sketcher. | ||||
Description | Add options for Sketcher to use when FreeCAD initially starts and no file has been opened. https://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=31000 To summerize, there are two issues, both with starting a sketch for the first time. 1) This text from a post stated well: "offer a setting in Preferences --> Display to set the initial view to one of the standard views (top, right, front, left, axonometric...), but change the default from top to axonometric." 2) This text from a post stated well: " the zoom is waaay to close. The whole width of the screen is about 2 mm. Suitable for designing the tiniest of parts". My screen measures 2.5 x 1.5, very small also. #1 above could be very helpful to the new user, they would get a much better idea of the 3D workspace. Thanks | ||||
