Experimential Track Ball for Arc Rotate

<< < (5/7) > >>

AlecJames:
Options->Debug->Use Original Arc Rotate

I haven't practised much with the new track ball, sometimes I don't hit the track ball lines so nothing happens

Steve:
I use the original arc rotate, too. I'm not sure the new one will work out but I'll leave it there for now. There are some problems with the original rotation direction when you are looking from the back or from an odd angle that I do nee to fix, however.

Note: new users should have the old one enabled by default.

Raxx:
I'd like to go on the record and state that I really don't like the new track ball for arc rotate.

Steve:
Yes, another experiment that didn't pan out as I'd hoped. It can be useful in Object coordinates (hot-key 'o') however.

I'm also experimenting with a miniature version over the little axis in the lower left-hand corner so that when you move the mouse over it the track ball appears aligned with the axis.

Trevor:
As I stated before, for a touch interface, the addition of a zoom would be usefull, but yes, with a mouse the original arc rotate is far better hence why I said the new one should still accept right and middle clicks (since they cant be done on touch it wouldn't affect them - well, right can, its touch-and-hold-then-drag :P)
