No camera dropdown menu in Substance Painter

Usually there should be a camera dropdown menu next to the material menu, where I can access my imported cameras and the standard top/side/… views. But it is gone! Also under display settings I only have a greyed out default camera. Anybody knows what the problem is?

Solved. The camera option is only available when you 1. export a camera from your 3d program and 2. activate the "import cameras" option when you import your 3d file.

Can confirm that f5 is perspective view, f6 is orthographic view. Adobe, please add those shortcut reminders, grayed out, to the camera settings so people know & are reminded. That would be very helpful. Having the camera settings grayed out without a toggle button there is very confusing. Why not add a toggle button there? If you dig in the hotkeys, they're listed there but it's not obvious that it's something that even exists.

Actually changing from orthographic to perspektive did the trick for me.. Hit F5 for perspektive view

Literally saved me on an assignment. Thank you. Did so much google searching and finally stumbled upon your hotkey advice. Take care.
