3D navigation tools
When you navigate in 3D, it helps to think that you are viewing the stationary 3D model
from a camera's perspective. You can rotate, pan (move up, down, or side-to-side), and
zoom in or out.
Note: If the 3D toolbar doesn't appear, you may need to enable the 3D content by clicking
in the 3D model area with the Hand tool.

Tool if Enable 3D Selection For The Hand Tool is selected in 3D section of the
