Displays the Common Views control, which provides a graphical display used to select the eye point angle from which you view the model. The control is a three-dimensional wireframe box that consists of white circles on each corner and three white arrows that point to the faces. Each corner circle, arrow, or face of the box highlights in yellow
as you pause the pointer over it. You can select one of the six faces of the 3D box to change your view
to a 2D view, or you can select one of the eight corner circles to change your view
to an isometric view.
Use the Rotate with Model Fit 
button to update and fit the view when you switch between the common views.
The Common Views control works along with the View Cube. When you use the View Cube to change the eye point position, the Common Views control automatically updates to show the new position, and vice versa. This offers several ways for you to change the eye point position. For more information on the View Cube, see Use the View Cube for Eye Point Navigation.

You can dock the Common Views control at the edge of the window, or you can let it float like a dialog box. The docking areas for this control are automatically restricted to help reduce the possibility of the docking area obscuring the client area of the application window. If you are unable to dock this control where you want it, try resizing the control to be smaller or resizing the application window to be larger.
