Hello,
I have recently purchased this 3dconnexion space mouse wireless. I am happy with the quality of it, great job on that.
I am trying to navigate in Sketchup with it, after some twiching I am able to get the hang of it. However, I cannot see how I can Use it to show clients with the "WALK" or "LOOK AROUND" function of sketchup as if I am in the model, (architectural) and give a 3d feel of what the room looks and feel l like.
Question:
HOW DO YOU ACTIVATE THE LOOK AROUND FUNCTION with 3d Connexion Space mouse? I wish to be able to stay still while tilting and turning our head (view point).
Please help
Sketchup - look around - walk around

Re: Sketchup - look around - walk around
tons of ways to achieve this; here's what i would do.
1) start at the correct "eye level" and disable any ability to zoom up and down. maybe even turn on dominant so you can only walk in straight lines.
*now you can walk around your model to get to your "viewing spot"
2) set a button to disable pan/zoom. once you are at your "viewing spot" click it.
*you should be stuck in that spot but free to look around. maybe toggle off dominant for a more natural feel
and you're set!
