NX 7.5: View Style - Perspective

[ljbutler]

Is there any information I can find about the Perspective options for Drafting Views in 7.5? For whatever reason the WCS is something like a billion miles from where the actual part is (very poor modeling standards in our company), and I think it's messing with where the distance is suppose to be.

Front Clipping
When set, turns on a member view's front clipping plane. The Distance box controls the distance between the view's center and the front clipping plane.

Back Clipping
When set, turns on a member view's back clipping plane. The Distance box controls the distance between the view's center and the back clipping plane.

Fit Planes to Extents
Calculates the front and back clipping plane values that fit outside the model extents. After the values are calculated, they are displayed in the Distance boxes. You can then click OK or Apply to update the display.

Perspective
When set, changes the default Parallel projection to Perspective projection. The Distance box specifies the distance between the view center and the clipping planes.
Caution: If you set the Perspective option for a view, you can not add crosshatch or area fill patterns to that view.

Above is what's listed in the help files, but that information seems super minimal. What exactly is the view center? Is the view plane parallel to the view, even if it's an ISO view? I was wondering if there was a resource that is more detailed on what it all means.
