A few teething problems are perhaps to be expected.

Setting the latitude to 30° and the camera angle to 20 gives a reasonable view
of all sides.

I tend to enjoy a camera angle of 55 for perspective renderings, the default
(67, I think) has too much perspective.

(...) Non-orthographic perspective renderings never seem to work for me. They always look like flat, rendered with artifical perspective rather than rendered objects seen in perspective. But YMMV, of course! Dave! (20 years ago, 6-Apr-04, to lugnet.cad.dev.org.ldraw)
