Atmosphere Builder Basics
Working with views
The document window displays a
view
of the objects in a world. You can choose one of
three wireframe views to see a blueprint representation of your world called a
wireframe
;
or you can choose Browser view to see your world with its surface textures, colors, and
lighting. Browser view shows you how your world will appear when viewed on the Web in
the Atmosphere Browser.

About views
Building a world is easier when you understand how to use the different views. If you’ve
ever worked in a 3D modeling application or sketched out plans for a building project,
you’re already familiar with the concept of using views. Atmosphere Builder provides four
ways to view a world. The three wireframe views show you the structure of the world and
how the objects are connected to each other; the fourth view shows a preview of the world
as it will appear in the Atmosphere Browser with surface textures, colors, and lighting
applied to objects.

Top view
Shows the top of the wireframe from a position directly above it. When you first
create or open a world, this is the initial view in the document window.
Side view
Shows the side of the wireframe. You’ll frequently switch between the Top view
and Side view when placing and aligning objects in Atmosphere Builder.
Isometric view
Shows the wireframe from an oblique angle that is above and to the side
of it. Isometric view is useful for getting an overview of where objects are in the world.
