# View Menu

The View Menu gives you a single place for the viewer-wide controls that do not belong to any one asset, such as
 resetting the camera, jumping to an address, switching how the globe is drawn, and getting help with navigation. It
 opens from the "Menu" button in the top-right corner of the screen.

### Features

* Reset the camera back to its starting view at any time.
* Search for an address or place and fly straight to it.
* Switch the scene between 3D, 2.5D, and 2D projections.
* Change the base imagery layer drawn beneath your scene.
* Open a quick reference for mouse navigation.
* Report a bug without leaving the viewer.

### Opening the Menu

Click the "Menu" button in the top-right corner of the screen to open the View Menu panel. The panel appears just
 below the button and stays open while you work, so you can change a setting and see the result in the scene right
 away. Click the "X" in the panel header, or the "Menu" button again, to close it.

### Resetting the Camera

Click "Reset to Home" to fly the camera back to its default starting view. This is the quickest way to recover if you
&#x20;have navigated far away from your scene or lost track of where you are.

### &#x20;Searching for an Address

Type an address, city, or place name into the "Search address" field and press Enter. The viewer looks up the location
&#x20;and flies the camera to the first match. While the lookup runs you will see a "Searching…" message, and if nothing is
&#x20;found the field reports "No results" so you can adjust your search and try again.

### Switching the Scene Mode

Use the Mode dropdown to change how the globe is drawn. 3D shows the full globe as a sphere, 2.5D uses the Columbus
&#x20;View that lays the world out flat while keeping height, and 2D shows a flat top-down map. The viewer smoothly morphs
&#x20;between modes when you make a selection.

### Changing the Base Layer

Use the Layer dropdown to choose the base imagery drawn beneath your assets. Bing Aerial shows satellite imagery, Bing
&#x20;Road shows a road map, and OpenStreetMap shows the open community map. Switching the layer replaces the imagery under
&#x20;your scene without affecting any loaded assets

### Reporting a Bug

Click "Report Bug" to open the Report a Bug window, where you can describe what went wrong and send it to the team.
