The 3D view

The 3D view is where you see whether your layout actually works: how much floor is left, whether the bed clears the wheel arch, what the van feels like from the doorway. Everything else in the app exists to change what you see here.

It is the main body of the editor: your van, everything you have placed in it, and the ground and sky around it. You select objects by clicking them here, drag them with the on-screen handles, and move the camera to see what you are doing.

This section covers getting around that view and setting the scene. What you place in the view is Objects and the catalogue; what you do to a selected object is Selecting, moving and resizing.
