Changing Sheet and View Properties

The display of data object overlays can be controlled at a number of hierarchical levels: the window, the sheet or the projection. Each group of commands operate independently of each other. For example, the section orientation can be rotated independently of the view direction, and the page can be magnified and panned independently of the data in the plot area.

Tip: Much of the hierarchical structure of a particular sheet can be stored in template form. This minimizes the effort required to generate a consistent look and feel across a range of presentation projects by automatically generating a standard arrangement of sheets, projections and, if required, data object overlays. See Plot Templates.
