I am certain that it used to be possible in V4 to lock the view parallel to the screen so that the usual mouse operations to tilt the plane didn't function. I seem to recall that something similar could be done in V5, but I can't work out how to do this. Is my memory failing me or can it be done?
when working in sketcher, it is possible to view normal to the sketch. There is clearly a benefit to doing this.
There are a number of scenarios where construction in a 2d plane is necessary but sketcher is not appropriate.
For example when creating wireframe skeletons for knowledgeware or tracing an imported image which is not positioned on the 2d plane.
There are various ways I can get back to the 2d plane after the view has been tilted, but it would be easier if I could prevent rotation in the first place.
maybe you can take the attached file as a refer
Hello Andy, are you referring to creating a plane that is parallel to screen or the current view?
If so, maybe the following option in Plane Definition is what you are looking for.
Hi Andy,
Not the best solution but you can try this :
Go to "View > Navigation Mode > Multi-View Customization" to open the Views and Layout dialog box then select the Manual tab
In Configuration Selection area you can select "Main view to the right". Then you can select the lock options (rotation and/or translation).You must highlight the main view in the "Views & Layout" window and click Apply to get the desired results.
Have a nice day.

hi Antoine
yes ,this is a way to the question ,
but there will be 4 views on the window, yes? so it not convenient, yes
how to get one view both meet the requirement?
