View Toolbar
The standard orthogonal views on the SolidWorks
Standard Views toolbar
are equivalent to AutoCAD
®
software's views. Rather than the compass-oriented isometric views, SolidWorks uses Isometric, Trimetric, and
Dimetric
orientations. Normal To is a view perpendicular to any selected face or plane, equivalent to a plan view.
