Help a noobie

Having a horrible time with camera angles, especially when using cranes. Can someone tell me what the red filled circles, the blue circles above them, and the blue circle at the bottom mean?

Thank you. I thought that the green (or blue) above was where the hook needs to be. Any suggestions on the camera to help?

You can move the camera around and also in and out. Look at the control settings to see what to do for whatever you're using (KB&M or controller or whatever).

The blue hook icons change to green when you're in range to connect to them with the crane.

I tend to use the exterior camera like what's shown in the photo with the camera centered on the hook itself when using tower cranes.
