This chapter shows how to manipulate the drawing in 3D with minimal effort, to create views which are equivalent to a Driver’s Eye View of the road design.

These can be useful for engineering or presentation purposes – for example for safety assessments or to visualize an obstruction; or to enable presentations to be made for consultation purposes.

A slideshow can be created automatically so these views can be repeated effortlessly and endlessly. Several routines are included in the DEV menu section, to manipulate the position of a viewer and chosen direction of view.

These functions are contained in the GuideSIGN Markings Tools | Driver's Eye View menu, although all the tools described are more easily accessed by ribbon icons.
