# fsMapViewSet3DViewOrientation<no value>
This function can be used to set the view orientation for the MapView camera when in 3D mode.

 

 

##### Syntax

``` wasm
bool fsMapViewSet3DViewOrientation(
    FsContext ctx,
    FsTextureId id,
    FsMapView3DOrientation eOrientation
    )

| `id`           | The MapView render ID as returned by the function `fsMapViewCreate`.                                                          |

| `FS_MAP_VIEW_3D_ORIENTATION_FRONTVIEW` | Sets the 3D view to a static front view camera.                                                                  |
| `FS_MAP_VIEW_3D_ORIENTATION_TOPVIEW`   | Sets the 3D view to a static top view camera.                                                                    |
| `FS_MAP_VIEW_3D_ORIENTATION_CUSTOM`    | Sets the 3D view to use the custom view setup using the function `fsMapViewSet3DCustomViewOrientationInRadians`. |
