Hello I don't know why but suddenly i cant see anything in 3d perspective view. I'm working on a template for my firm so i drew a wall and opened the 3d perspective view. it didn't show me anything. in the 3d projection setting doesn't show a camera at all. the wall is visible i axonometric view. what is going on?

Try the 'Fit in Window' command at the bottom of the 3D window.

Although you may not have a camera set up Archicad may just be looking in the wrong direction.

i tried that. and nothing cam up is i wrote it's like there is no camera. normally when going to the projection settings you can move your current view marked with a camera. there is no camera.

I tried placing one manually but that didn't work either

alt/option +click in the preview window or your screen shot where you want the camera to be looking. Notice you can also adjust the camera distance etc. on the right.
