Hi Jan,
Thank you for your help!
I am trying to get a hand on these integrated viewers and I have a question now: If I want my plugin to use and to setup an integrated viewer (called an "examiner_widget" if I'm not wrong), how can I get a handler on the 2nd examiner_widget, for example? I searched the PluginFunctions and couldn't find a public function allowing me to do this.
Hi, You should not get direcect access to the widget itself. Use the Pluginfunctions (Especially in ViewControl) to setup the required orthogonal view. Best, Jan Möbius
With regards, William Chu

Hi,
maybe you can just use one of the integrated viewers (Hit space to activate them). You can set one of them to orthogonal projection and setup the modelview and projection. Then you can use all integrated features of the standard viewer.
Best, Jan
