  2. Screen direction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screen_direction

    One of the keys to maintaining screen direction is the 180-degree rule, which cuts a horizontal line through the frame. [3] Actors are then filmed from only one side of the axis, maintaining the orientation of the space for the viewer. [4] This can be manipulated specifically to create a shift in perspective.

  3. Body relative direction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Body_relative_direction

    A non-flipped image of a right-handed Cartesian coordinate system, illustrating the x (right-left), y (forward-backward) and z (up-down) axes relative to a human being.Body relative directions (also known as egocentric coordinates) [1] are geometrical orientations relative to a body such as a human person's body or a road sign.

  4. Vertical and horizontal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vertical_and_horizontal

    Through any point P in the plane, there is one and only one vertical line within the plane and one and only one horizontal line within the plane. This symmetry breaks down as one moves to the three-dimensional case. A vertical line is any line parallel to the vertical direction. A horizontal line is any line normal to a vertical line.

  5. Page orientation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Page_orientation

    This axis is normally oriented to be vertical so that the image quality appears unchanged when the screen is viewed from the side, and image contrast is adjusted by tilting the panel up or down. By rotating the screen 90 degrees, the varying contrast axis is now horizontal and a viewer to one side will see a washed out light contrast image ...

    Moving up and down on the Z-axis. (Heave) Rotational envelopes: Tilting side to side on the X-axis. Tilting forward and backward on the Y-axis. Turning left and right on the Z-axis. In terms of a headset, such as the kind used for virtual reality, rotational envelopes can also be thought of in the following terms: Pitch: Nodding "yes"

  9. Typographic alignment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Typographic_alignment

    In English and most European languages where words are read left-to-right, text is usually aligned "flush left", [1] meaning that the text of a paragraph is aligned on the left-hand side with the right-hand side ragged. This is the default style of text alignment on the World Wide Web for left-to-right text. [2] Quotations are often indented ...
