- [Instructor] The default layout of view ports
is this quad four layout in which we've got
a perspective view and three orthographic views
that are all equally sized.
And we can resize these by clicking and dragging
on the dividers if we want,
we can make this different scaling to those view ports,
or we can reset that by right clicking in the center
and choosing reset.
Additionally, we can change the layout,
so that for example we have one large panel
and three stacked smaller panels.
We have a bunch of different options for default layouts
that we can choose from.
And that's done from a toolbar
called the viewport layout tab tool bar.
And I previously hid that in order
to reduce visual clutter for the lessons.
Let's bring that back.
If you'll remember, if you want to turn tool bars
on and off, you can do that by right clicking
on the grab bar of any tool bar or panel,
including the command panel.
So here's the grab for the command panel.
We can right-click on that.
And we want to enable viewport layout tabs,
and there it is.
It appears over on the left side of the screen,
and it can have a whole bunch of stacked icons here
for different viewport layouts.
The only one we see now is quad four
and it's currently active.
Let's select from one of the presets that exist.
That's done by clicking on this right facing arrow.
Create a new viewport layout tab.
Click on that,
and we get a little popup from which we can choose
some default options such as a side by side
or what I really want, which is one large
and three small viewport panels,
click on that.
And that new preset appears here
in the viewport layout tab toolbar,
and it takes effect.
And we can see that we have a perspective view
and three orthographic views.
We can zoom in on everything.
We can maybe select some object,
maybe select all the objects.
And we can do a zoom extend all selected command
and increase that.
So that's pretty good.
We've got that the way we want it more or less.
Notice that we did get a gradient here.
And we can get rid of that if we want.
With that perspective view active,
we can go into the views menu to viewport background
and set that to a solid color,
and that'll be stored in our current scene.
All right, if we want to switch back
to our four viewport layout we can just click on
the button here on our viewport layout tabs toolbar
and we're back where we were.
