Fake Perspective of The North & Sun symbol in 3D viewpor
Posted: Thu Sep 21, 2006 2:23 am
The North Symbol in the 3D viewport, is not sensitive to focal length of the used lens. In other words it looks like an isometric axonometric perspective while the image in the 3d viewport is a real perspective.
This causes perspective contradictions, that results in confusing comunication on where is the SUN.
This is much more noticeable when you use wideangle lenses, which is the 99% of the cases in architectural use.
At least, use the same perspective for the Sun and North Symbol, as used in the 3 d geometry when visible in the 3d viewport.
The best solution would be a simple ortographic representation in the Sun and Sky Window.
