<Question about the appearent flipping of the Y and Z axis in ipas>
Hi Danny,
The labels on the 3D editor display are user configurable inside the 3ds.set
file. Because of this, you can change your axis lables to anything. Internal
to 3D Studio, the axis are like this:
X axis is width
Y axis is depth
Z axis is height
The default axis in the 3ds.set file switch the Y and the Z. Regardless of
the axis labels,
the viewports will be constructed like this:
XZ, front/back views
XY, top/bottom views
YZ, left/right views
It's a little confusing. 🙂
Ciao,
Grant
