How to see an object orthogonally? I am not sure if I am using the correct terminology but what I mean to say is: when you look at a 3D geometry in the x-y, y-z or z-x planes, COMSOL shows them in a perspective (?) view. For example, if I have a 3D pipe, and I am looking at it from the side view, I only want to see two concentric circles instead I am seeing 4 concentric circles. I started having this issue when I started using the 4X COMSOL versions. In 3.5 there was a button to change the view. If my question is not clear please let me know and I will try to explain it using a picture.

Thanks,
Sirisha

Hi

that is the Perspective or projection mode see the "view" subnode.

Note you might have several views and even some with hidden geoemtries OR entities

Good luck

Did you figure this out. I'm trying to achieve the same thing with no luck.

Go to Model / Definitions / View / Camera
then change Perspective to Orthographic under Projection.
