This example shows how to read the URL for the pdf and take the query string portion (i.e. the part after the "?" hash symbol) and set the current view.

Try the following urls:

setview.pdf?view=Left

setview.pdf?view=Top

setview.pdf?view=Front

setview.pdf?view=Isometric

Here's the script attached to the 3D annotation:

if ( host && host.external )
{
	var url = host.util.crackURL( host.URL );

	if ( url.cQuery )
	{
		var vars = parseQuery( url.cQuery );
		if ( vars.view )
		{
			var animate = false;
			runtime.setView( vars.view, animate );
		}
	}
}

function parseQuery( query )
{
	var result = {};
	var pairs = query.split( "&" );
	for ( var i = 0; i < pairs.length; i++ )
	{
		var pair = pairs[ i ].split( "=" );
		if ( pair[ 0 ] && pair[ 1 ] )
			result[ pair[ 0 ] ] = pair[ 1 ];
	}
	return result;
}
