Description

The Std StoreWorkingView command stores the camera settings of the active 3D view in its temporary working view. This view can be recalled with the Std RecallWorkingView command.

Each 3D view has its own working view. Storing a new working view will overwrite the existing working view of the active 3D view. When a 3D view is closed its working view is lost.

Usage

  1. Make sure a 3D view is active.
  2. There are several ways to invoke the command:
    • Select the View → Standard views → Store working view option from the menu.
    • Use the keyboard shortcut: Shift+End.

Scripting

To store the current camera settings of the active 3D view in a working view:

import FreeCADGui

FreeCADGui.runCommand("Std_StoreWorkingView", 0)
