Using the Pivot tool

  1. Click the Pivot tool button Pivot Tool on the Globe toolbar. A pivot point will be established at the center of the display. The Pivot tool allows you to rotate the globe around the pivot point and zoom in and out on the point.
  2. Click and drag to the right to rotate the globe counterclockwise around the pivot point.
  3. Right-click and drag down to zoom in, or drag up to zoom out from the pivot point.
Tip:

If there is a 3D object, such as a building, that you would like to see from all angles, click it with the Target tool. The building will be centered in the display. Use the Pivot tool to see the building from all angles.
