Default rotate 90 deg in CFX post

Hi,

I have a plane with color according to a variable. When in the 3D viewer of CFX post I right click and choose "predefined camera" -> "towards +X", it always shows the domain 90 degrees of how I want it. Is there a way I can rotate it exactly 90 degrees (other than fiddling with the mouse and trying to get it approximately 90 deg).

Thanks

Hai Jorn,

Goto the Details tab of the Plane and then to view tab in it. Check the apply rotation tab and apply the desired rotaion.

Regards,

Subha.

This will rotate the plane, not the camera.

To rotate the camera exactly 90 degrees, first align your view with the +/- X axis, then hold the Ctrl key while clicking the up/down arrows on your keyboard.

Hi @CycLone,
if I do so, it is working fine..
If I hold control key and click up/down arrows, camera is rotating bit by bit for each click..
Now I want to reduce the rotation angle for each click.. i.e., for example, it is rotating 10º for every click, now I want to reduce it to 5º to match my necessity angle views.. (just not to jump from 35º to 45º in one click, I want to rotate to 40º from 35º, for example)
How to control this amount of rotation angle for each click? Can we set this angle somewhere in the settings?

Thanks a lot!

I do not think you can control the rotation per click.

If you want fine control over the view angle then I recommend you use a session file or a state file. Then you can edit view angle to get the exact view you want.

It is possible. 15 years ago I asked ANSYS for a once in a lifetime application. It is controlled somewhere in an editable file with defaults settings. But I don't remember.......
So please ask ANSYS again.
