How to view the specific area in the allegro 3D viewer?

Hi. My question is been very silly, but now I'm in beginning stage of the using Allegro PCB Editor. For the four layer finished PCB, i want to view the particular area in the Allegro 3D view with certain two layers. In case for example the top & bottom side of the PCB, i had done copper pour with the through hole via. The top & bottom side of the PCB contains routing with copper area along through hole via. I should see the two layers with etch and copper.So if i want to see it particularly that area in allegro viewer is possible. Valuable solution will more appreciated. Thanks & Regards Dhamodharan

     Yes it's possible. Turn on the layers you wish to see then draw a window around the section of the board you want, hover over anything that's highlighted and use right click - 3d view. You can also press the 3D View icon and see the whole board. Zoom in/out using the mouse scroll wheel.
