3D View

The 3D View provides a perspective visualization of your LED installation, showing screens positioned in three-dimensional space with real-time content rendering.

Navigation

• Orbit — Click and drag to rotate the camera around the scene
• Pan — Right-click and drag, or hold Shift while dragging
• Zoom — Scroll wheel
• WASD Movement — Use keyboard for first-person-style camera movement:
  • W/S — Move forward/backward
  • A/D — Strafe left/right
  • Q/E — Move down/up

Positioning Screens

Select a screen to show transform handles. Use them to:

• Move — Drag the arrow handles to reposition in X, Y, or Z
• Rotate — Press R to toggle rotate mode, then drag the ring handles
• Scale — Resize the screen (maintains panel grid proportions)

The New Project Wizard automatically positions multiple screens side-by-side with a small gap between them.

Display Options

The 3D View toolbar includes toggles for:

• Environment — Choose between Dark, Light, or Sky backgrounds
• Camera Type — Switch between perspective and orthographic projection
• Grid — Show or hide the ground reference grid
• Panel Borders — Show or hide individual panel outlines
• Labels — Show or hide screen names and dimensions

Real-Time Rendering

Screens in the 3D view display their linked surface content in real-time. This includes:

• Test patterns with animation
• Video playback
• Images
• Panel Map overlays showing wiring data

Performance

The 3D view is optimized for 60 FPS rendering across all display configurations including:

• Multiple screens with high panel counts
• Active test pattern animations
• Dual and quad view layouts
• Up to 4K resolution

An optional FPS counter can be enabled to verify performance.
