How do I change the default view in a 3d pdf?

When I open my 3D model in a 3d pdf I want it to start in a certain view and I can't figure out how to change this setting. Help please!

Click inside the 3D model space to activate it.  Then under the Views, create the view you want (spin, zoom, etc.)  Hit the Camera to create the custom view.  Then from the Views Pull Down, select "Manage Views".  This will open a window with all the custom views - pick the one you want to be the default, and select the option to "make default".

 

Then right click in the model area to "disable content".  Then Right click.  Choose Properties. One of the options under "poster view" will be to retrieve poster from Default view - pick this radio button.  Save the PDF.  Now when you open the file, the default view will show as the custom one you created.
