# Adjusting the eye distance

The eye distance may be adjusted as follows.

Dragging

  • In the Rotate cursor mode Ctrl+Drag+Lft and +Rt moves the eye distance out and in. The sensitivity is governed by the eye distance increment mouse sensitivity, see: Graphics preferences.

Ctrl+Drag

  • With the mouse wheel (or middle button) held down (in any cursor mode) operates as Ctrl+Drag in the Rotate cursor mode.

The following commands (and their associated accelerator keys) are available from the Graphics > Orientation menu to adjust the eye distance.

Eye distance in (Ctrl+Rt)

Eye distance out (Ctrl+Lft)

  • Multiplies the eye distance by (1 / eye distance increment).

Explicitly

The program imposes a minimum eye distance of 1mm.

Note: Scaling to fit resets the eye distance.
