in computer graphics terminology, a "4-View" is four simultaneous views of a scene: front, side, top, and perspective, much like a set of drafting blueprints.   when you select this command, K-3D adds four new cameras to your document and automatically places them in a 4-view configuration:

note that any existing cameras your document contains will remain unchanged - the 4-View creates four additional cameras.  note, too that the four new cameras are normal cameras, so you can, if you wish, move, pan, and zoom them into any configuration you like.  you could also maximize the cameras, and use the Tools / Workbook Mode command "stack" the four views on top of each other, if you find them to be too small for your liking.
