Standard views in a model...

Is there any way to quickly obtain the standard orthographic views in a model? I know of the "right-click", "isometric view" one, but can I get "front", "side", "back", etc. views in the same manner? I would even be happy with a macro. The selection of the rotate icon and spacebar combo is too laborious.


Thanks.

There is a tool bar that allows picking standard views.

I feel hitting the space bar for the Orientation window is very quick and easy to use. Not sure what you mean by "combo". "Happy the Hare at morning for she is ignorant to the Hunter's waking thoughts."
 
The above refers to SolidWorks software. Sorry, I thought I was in the SolidWorks forum. [ponder] "Happy the Hare at morning for she is ignorant to the Hunter's waking thoughts."
 
You can make up a template with the standard views place. Make a drawing with the views set up however you like them and then save it as a template. Then you will just have to tell it which part and it will place the views.
