Grid Alignment in Viewport when Numpad Keys are used I have some experience with 3DS Max, and am switching to Blender. I am a retired Software Developer, so this is solely for self-education and mental exercise. I have an object I originally created in 3DS Max which I have imported into Blender as a .obj file.

I have done some experimentation in Blender with this model in both object and edit modes, and I seem to be making progress, but I notice that when I use the Numpad 7, 1, and 3 keys with this object, the Grid is not aligned, it appears sloped in all three views. By contrast, when I do a File->New and load the default cube, the 7, 1, and 3 keys all show the grid as exactly aligned to each axis.

I assume I have caused this myself, but I'd like to know how to correct it.
As Mr Zak says in his comment:


  Try to press Numpad 5 to enter Orthographic mode for those preset views.
