Orthogonal View

orthoview

If you are working in 3D, use the orthogonal view to view your tracing from the side, along the XZ axes or the YZ axes .

To navigate quickly to a specific Z, hover over the Z location in the Orthogonal View window, right-click and click Go here.
Use the depth filter (Trace>Tools dropdown) when a tracing becomes cluttered and tracings with different Z coordinates overlay one another.

	Zoom in \| Zoom out \| Zoom to fit (fits the entire tracing in the Orthogonal View window)
	Click on a point you want to see in the center of the Orthogonal View window.
	Select one of these two icons to view your tracing along the XZ or YZ axis.
	Useful when a tracing becomes cluttered in the viewing field, with tracings of neuronal elements with different Z coordinates overlaying one another. Only displays the area within the range you defined. The range is defined symmetrically, which means that the current Z is defined as the mid-range; half of the range is above the current Z, half of the range is below the current Z. Example: If Z=0 and Range=100, the range is between Z=-50.0 and Z=50.0. The range is highlighted in green on the right. You can adjust it manually by dragging the arrows.
