Configuring viewports
“
You can also configure your view port so you can view your scenes differently in Maya. So here we have a perspective view port and along the top you'll see that we have menus for view, shading, lighting, and so on. We also have some buttons that also give you that same functionality along the top of the view port. Now I'm going to hop out to this four view here and you'll see that every view port has that menu and series buttons, and that means we can configure our view ports differently for each view. So we're going to take a look at just one of these so I'm going to go ahead and just highlight this perspective view and tap the space bar. If that doesn't work just go ahead and press this button here.
