Odyssey Viewport

This page still displays outdated interface - it will be updated as soon as possible

Odyssey brings an additional viewport to Unreal Engine named Odyssey Viewport We advise you to choose this one when working your 2D animations or storyboard with Odyssey, as they offer much more options than the defaults viewports from Unreal Engine.

Indeed, this mode will allow you to:

  • Pan with the viewport with M+LMB + drag

  • Zoom in and out the viewport with M+RMB + drag

  • Rotate the viewport with Ctrl+M+LMB + drag

You can reset pan, zoom and rotate thanks to this icon at the top right corner.

The gear icon can be used to modify the display of the Storyboard Viewport:
