Pan

GENERATE/B_PAN6.gif  

Moves your view parallel to the current viewport plane.

Reference

Pan is modal (it stays active until you right-click or select another command).

To constrain panning of any viewport to a single axis, hold down the SHIFT key. The pan is constrained to the axis you first move while the SHIFT key is down.

To accelerate panning, hold down the CTRL key before panning.

How To

To pan a non-camera viewport

  1. Click Pan or press CTRL+P.
  2. Point to a viewport and drag in the direction you want to move.

To constrain Pan and Orbit to be vertical or horizontal

The initial direction of the drag sets the constraint. If you drag vertically at first, the pan or orbit is constrained to be vertical; if you drag horizontally at first, the constraint is horizontal.

The Zoom Extents All flyout and the Full-Screen toggles remain visible. These controls aren't specific to camera views. Clicking Zoom Extents All affects other kinds of viewports but does not affect camera viewports.
