Oblique view (Plan oblique 45 degrees)

 From:  rado

Is there a good way to set a 3d view so that I can quickly export objects in 3d space to look like they were drawn in different styles?

For example, I want to do drawings of some weird objects as plan obliques at 45 degree rotation. I would also be interested in 30 / 60 plan oblique drawings.

I think that I need to change the 3d view option to parallel, but is there a way to adjust the angle to be correct in the 3d viewport so that I can export a known view to a different program?

I attached an example of the view that I'm trying to get from a book...

Forgive the terrible image, I only have access to mspaint at work =)

Thanks for the help in advance. This forum is really really helpful!!!!
