Change here the projection parameters of the layer (or list of layers, 
previously selected with Layer->Select, when 
Global is pressed).
Parameters for empty entries or 
Local choices remain unchanged.
To change the layer name write the new name in the Layer entry, followed
by the layer number (GAMGI only needs the number to identify the layer).
Perspective, Orthographic
Change the type of projection of the layer.
GAMGI projects the 3D space on the 2D screen using 
Perspective 
or 
Orthographic projections. The 
Perspective projection 
is better to simulate realistic views and gives users a depth feedback,
but the 
Orthographic projection preserves object dimensions, 
as these are not distorted by perspective. 
Near, Far, Top
Change the dimensions of the space volume that is visible to the observer, 
after being projected into the window graphic area.
This volume has six faces, and the front and back faces are always perpendicular 
to the viewing direction. 
Near and 
Far parameters set
the distance from the view point to these front and back faces, respectively,
corresponding to the minimum and maximum distances that the observer can see. 
Near must be smaller than 
Far.
In a 
Orthographic projection, the projection volume is a rectangular 
parallelepiped, so the 4 lateral faces are paralell and perpendicular to 
each other. In a 
Perspective projection, the projection volume is 
a truncated quandrangular pyramid, with the apex at the view point. 
Top defines the half-height of the front face of the projection 
volume. The width is automatically determined from the ratio height / width
of the window graphic area, so everytime users resize this window, the
projection volume changes accordingly. Increasing 
Top increases
the visible volume and decreases the size of the objects.
Each layer has its own projection parameters, so in a window with
multiple visible layers, the image rendered in the graphic area
is the superposition of the various, totally independent, layer
views.
