3D Visualization Shortcuts
| 0 | Rotates the 3D view so that the camera perspective is perpendicular to the board and will rotate the board so that the horizontal plane (X-axis) runs along the bottom of the editing window (at 0° rotation) |
| 9 | Rotates the 3D view so that the camera perspective is perpendicular to the board and will rotate the board so that the horizontal plane (X-axis) runs along the right side of the editing window (at 90° rotation) |
| 2 | From 3D switches to 2D using last used 2D view configuration |
