Can't see the perspective view

I cannot see the perspective of my 3D model. Can someone please help? I even tried switching to the default view.

Hi Hariidaran,

Hover your mouse cursor over the perspective view and hit the "F" key on your keyboard. That will frame the selected object. Alternatively, you can hover your mouse cursor over the perspective view and hit the "A" key to view everything, regardless of the selection.

If you still can't see anything, hit Ctrl + 1. It's possible you're only viewing the selected object, but hitting Ctrl + 1 will toggle this setting. Alternatively, you can also go to the "Show" menu in the Perspective view and choose Isolate Select, and then toggle the "View Selected" setting.

I hope that helps! I'm going to mention Jason Baskin to confirm this is correct.
