Autodesk VIZ has different sets of keyboard shortcuts depending on what you are doing. There are the main set of hotkeys, as well of unique hotkeys for areas such as the Material Editor, NURBS, etc…

Hitting “B” in the main GUI will give the bottom view, while “B” in the Material Editor toggles the background. This is only if the Keyboard Shortcut Override toggle is turned on.

To ensure that it is on (it is by default) Make sure the T key icon is down. This icon can be found in the Extras toolbar, which can be toggled by right clicking anywhere on the toolbars.
