# 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.
# Menu commands
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)
- Multiplies the eye distance by (eye distance increment), see: Graphics preferences.
Eye distance out (Ctrl+Lft)
- Multiplies the eye distance by (1 / eye distance increment).
Explicitly
- Specify the eye distance in the Orientation settings dialog box.
The program imposes a minimum eye distance of 1mm.
Note: Scaling to fit resets the eye distance.
