Set the PERSPECTIVE keyword on your view object to 2 for
a perspective projection.

Generally speaking, objects are viewed front to back. You
may have to change the order of your objects to get the
view you want. Typically, this is done with the MOVE method
on an IDL_Container object or one of its subclasses (e.g., an
IDLgrModel object).
