SketchUp: Setting your field of view

[curi3003]

how come i can't activate field of view in sketchup?

[codsoldier135]

@curi3003 maybe you should watch the video carefully and look at the buttons that he presses, it may be a little white, but you can still see

[pianicimo12]

You should have placed the 2D female near the entrance in the video at the focal spot instead of a simple line straight up to simulate a person looking from different field of view in cones. The video is well explain tho...

what if u put 360?

[aidanchopra]

I tried it; it looks like the widest angle that SketchUp will accept is 120 degrees. Good question!

If think theoretically you can do so... just imagine as all the vertices are aligned inside the view... the image will be very distorted... but that will look cool...

@Anzho lol impossible

[AlienMagi]

@codsoldier135 it's not impossible... you can actually do more than 360 even, but the screen will repeat after that

[codsoldier135]

@AlienMagi you reply to me now.. i forgot what i was talking about. i dont even use sketchup anymore :P

[AlienMagi]

@codsoldier135 oh... you said it's impossible to have a 360 field of view

I never new I can change the field of view by typing it in. I never noticed I can change the Look Around height by typing it in!
