Be sure to pick the model layer, before starting using the 3D tools, then select in the TOOL BOX the 3D tool you need. You can rotate the object (01) or you can orbit around the model using the camera tool (02). To mantain the object connected to the ground floor use camera tool (02)

Generating ground plane shadows After setting the angle you need and before adjusting the lights and if you want to generate floor shadows, make sure to select in the 3D menu, Ground floor shadow catcher and Snap object to ground plane before starting render the scene. This will make the ground floor shadows transparent allowing to place any background under the model layer. For better results I do: 1st Render the model without ground plane shadows... 2nd ...duplicate model layer and the layer underneath I activate the ground floor shadow catcher...render again with floor shadows. Advantages allows me to control the shadows cast intensity independently of the object

Render the final picture After concluding the customizing process, you need to render the final picture, where you can see the soft shadows, reflections... To do that you must go to 3D scene to change render settings, change Quality to Ray traced Final, follow the pink dots, from top to bottom and let the computer render the scene.
