Looking at a model

Turn and zoom the model, and see it textured, as plain clay, as normals or as a wireframe.

Where it is

The 3D view · the bar along the top

What you can do

  • Drag to turn the model; scroll to zoom. R puts the view back.
  • Textured (1) is the model as made.
  • Clay (2) shows it plain grey, to judge the shape without the texture.
  • Normals (3) colours each surface by the way it faces.
  • Wireframe (W) draws the mesh over any of them.
  • The photo stays in the top-left corner while you look.
