YOUR VIEWING SETTINGS
View guide
Use the overview to understand the stadium's scale. Enter a viewing position, adjust your height and posture, and compare two positions using the same settings.
Compare position and height separately
First compare positions at the same viewing height. Then keep the same side of the stadium while moving upward. This makes the effect of a higher angle easier to distinguish from a change in direction.
Set your eye level
Enter your height and choose seated or standing. Use the crowd controls to explore how people ahead can change the view. Keep these conditions matched when comparing two positions.
Use one reference point
Distances use the same viewing target within each layout.
