View motion capture data in 3D perspective viewed from a specified point of sight, or direction, of the capture volume.

The **3D Orthogonal** view pane contains the following components:

# Viewing data in 3D Orthogonal view

View motion capture data in 3D perspective viewed from a specified point of sight, or direction, of the capture volume. You can view 3D data from an orthogonal perspective live in real time or from a previously saved trial.

When you have displayed a **3D Orthogonal** view pane, you can:

- Manage the visualization of graph data in the workspace.
- Highlight the representations of specific cameras in **3D Orthogonal** view pane workspace by selecting one or more cameras.


    **To view data in a 3D Orthogonal view pane:**


1. Stream live camera data.
2. From the view pane tool bar, select **3D Orthogonal**. The reconstructed 3D data from all cameras is displayed in a single **3D Orthogonal** view pane, initially from the **Top** view.
3. From the View list in the **3D Orthogonal** view pane tool bar, either leave the default or select another orthogonal projection to set the view to a different point of sight:
  - **-Z** (default)
  - **+Z**
  - **+X**
  - **-X**
  - **+Y**
  - **-Y**
4. In the **3D Orthogonal** view pane, select a marker and perform an action on it in either of the following ways:
  - On the **Objects** tab, check the reconstruction and labeling and edit any errors or inconsistencies; or
  - Right-click and select a command from the displayed context menu.
    :check_mark: **Tip**: You can select the **Detach Marker** command from the context menu displayed when you right-click on a marker in the **3D Perspective** view pane.
