A view contains a display group and a definition group.  The display group contains all of the objects to be displayed when the view is updated.  The definition group contains the cameras that view the scene and the lights that illuminate it.  In addition, views also contain attributes that affect aspects of the final images.  These aspects are:

The active camera, one of the cameras in the definition group.

The clear flag, whether to clear to background before rendering. 

The render style. 

The view boundary, in frame coordinates.
