In AutoCAD 3D modeling, is it accurate to say that the 3D Rotate tool is located on the “3D View” toolbar, i.e., accessed specifically from that toolbar for rotating solids and surfaces?

Introduction / Context:
AutoCAD and similar CAD platforms provide multiple ways to rotate 3D geometry, commonly through the 3DROTATE command and on-screen gizmos. A frequent misconception is that the “3D Rotate” tool is tied to a specific toolbar called the “3D View” toolbar. In reality, modern AutoCAD UIs expose the tool in several places (e.g., Home tab > Modify panel, right-click gizmo menus, command line), and historical toolbars varied by workspace. This item checks understanding of tool location versus command capability.

Given Data / Assumptions:

• The environment is a standard AutoCAD-like 3D Modeling workspace.
• Users can invoke 3D rotation via the 3DROTATE command or a 3D gizmo.
• UI layouts change across versions and workspaces.

Concept / Approach:
Do not bind a command's existence to one toolbar. Verify the command name, typical Ribbon/Modify panel location, and the availability of on-screen gizmos and right-click menus. Toolbars differ by version and user customization.

Step-by-Step Solution:

Verification / Alternative check:
Switch workspaces or load classic toolbars; locations shift, but the command remains available via Ribbon/command line/gizmo.

Why Other Options Are Wrong:
“Correct” and “Only available in paper space viewports”: incorrect—3D rotation targets model space solids. “Depends on the visual style” and “Partially correct (older UI variations only)”: style or legacy UI does not uniquely fix the tool to a “3D View” toolbar.

Common Pitfalls:
Assuming a single toolbar equals a universal rule; ignoring Ribbon/command access; conflating 3D Orbit (view control) with 3D Rotate (geometry edit).

Final Answer:
Incorrect
