What determines 'zoom' of object when view default

[msteffke]

What determines size of object in screen when you 'view default', or hit
that little magnifiying glass tool button? I want to use
ProRasterFileWrite to dump a tiff of a shaded model. However the model
is always zoomed out too far. And is there a way to zoom the assembly
in closer prior to the rasterwrite?

Thanks for any idea,
Mark Steffke

You need to use ProViewMatrixSet() to set the zoom of the current view. You can specify a zoom value in the new matrix that you use. Read the API Wizard under User's Guide->Graphics and Object Display->Solid Orientation and additionally User's Guide->Coordinate Systems and Transformations->Coordinate System Transformations. The latter will explain the contents of a matrix.
