How Do I Set Background Direction Visibility in 2.9?

Support Basics & Interface
#1

You used to be able to add an image and select whether it was visible from Top/Left/Right orth views etc - where’s this in 2.9x??

TIA

#2

These settings are now for Image Empties, not Background Images as it used to be in 2.7x. They’re in properties:
image

#3

they don’t do what i was asking.

#4

Enabling “Only Axis Aligned” makes images only appear in views they’re aligned with. Turning off “Perspective” makes them only appear in orthographic views. So turning one on and the other off is in fact “select whether it was visible from Top/Left/Right orth views etc”.
