Abstract
In a method and operating element for establishing an angle of view for an observer with respect to a two or three-dimensional object, which is displayed on an output device, the establishment of the angle of view takes place by control on a simple circular disc. A point on the disc is converted to a position on a virtual sphere. The respective angle of view with respect to the object is established by the axis, determined by the calculated position on the virtual sphere and the sphere center.
