  • Orthographic camera

    Hello, i've got a problem with Orthographic view.
    The angle of my camera is OK, but the horizontals are not horizontals...
    Is there something i can do ?
    Notice that i want to keep the point of view (to lightly see the top), i f i put the camera at the same hight of the trarget, i will have horizontals bu i will loose the view on the top...
    Dilemna...
    HELP !

    Orthographic camera doesn't necessary mean that the objects edges will align horizontally.
    If you would like to see the three sides - top, front and side and at the same time to have horizontals you have to roll the camera but this will also ruin the vertical alignment:

    I don't think 3dsMax has a camera that can show 3 sides of a cube and to align each of them to the corresponding axis.

    I can think 3 ways to workaround that.
    1.Fix that at compositing stage
    2.Use Perspective Match tool with Perspective Camera to align the edges to the corresponding axis:

    3.Apply FFD2x2x2 modifier to align edges to the desired axis:
