Viewing a window in 3 dimensions
 Warning
From version 28, this feature is no longer available.
Your window contains overlapping controls? You want to find out the Z-order position of your controls: which controls are displayed in the foreground? The two-dimensional display soon becomes inadequate for this type of operation. WINDEV gives a spatial view of a window by allowing you to view the window in three dimensions. The Z-order position of the different window controls appears immediately. A control selected in this display mode remains selected when the mode goes back to two dimensions. You have the ability to choose the best view angle via the mouse and via the keyboard keys. Caution: a specific configuration is required to use this feature. Example of window viewed in 3 dimensions To display your windows in 3 dimensions: - Display the window in the editor.
- On the "Display" tab, in the "Options" group, click "3D".
- The window is displayed in 3D.
Remark: To display a 3-dimensional view of your window and to animate this view, press Alt + Shift. The mouse or the keyboard can be used to optimize the window view. | | | Moves with the mouse | |
