Auto Rotate
This command enables or disables auto-rotation of the view. The rotation speed in each axis is specified by the View properties Auto Rotate Yaw, Auto Rotate Pitch, and Auto Rotate Roll. At least one of these properties must be non-zero for auto-rotate to work. Use the command View/Rotate/Auto Rotate or Shift+R.
Zero Rotation
This command resets the view's rotation to its default value. The panning is also reset. Use the command View/Rotate/Zero Rotation or Shift+Z.
Edit Rotation
This command lets you specify the view's rotation numerically. The Rotate dialog is displayed, showing the view's current rotation in each axis, in degrees. The X, Y, and Z values correspond to pitch, yaw and roll. Edit the values as desired and press OK to save your changes.
