Global View Attributes

Global view attributes are those settings that affect the entire view--functions that span all data groups. These are not typically used for changing how particles are displayed, but are used to describe the overall view in which your data groups are drawn. Among these settings are the field of view, the background color, and setting the camera position (your view).
