'View From' Height & 'View To' Height lets you change the view level.
If the 'View From' Height value is higher than 'View To' Height value, the virtual camera would be looking downwards.
If the 'View From' Height value is lower than 'View To' Height value, the virtual camera would be looking upwards.
'View From' Height set to (2400) & 'View To' Height set to (500)
'View From' Height set to (500) & 'View To' Height set to (2400)
View Angle lets you change the angle of the virtual camera lens.
The lower the View Angle value, the narrower the view. If the View Angle has a lower value, the view is zoomed in and covers only a constricted area.
The higher the View Angle value, the wider the view. If the View Angle has a higher value, the view is wider thereby covering an extensive area.
