    Detail boundary box - making it square?

    Inventor 2012, in an *.idw, can you make the detail boundary box square? I see there are two options for two different circles but not an option to make it square. Is it not possible or am I missing something?

     

    Thanks,

    Adrian

    Do you not have the choice when you place the view?  You can't change the shape after the view is created, but on my system you have a choice of shape when you start to place the view.  Not true for you?

    Thanks Sam, you are quite right. When I first place the view it's there. Thanks for clearing this up.
