Re: Camera mode vs. Helicopter mode

Hey Barbara,

Which 3d mouse to get?

Can someone tell me the difference between camera mode and helicopter mode, and why Lock horizon is only available in camera mode, but not in helicopter mode? Is there a manual for Space navigator that would ...

I then created an alias for the following macro: ! _SpaceMouse _Popup_Menu When I trigger the alias, a menu comes up with the Camera/Helicopter option. If you choose Camera mo...

Re: Lock Horizon in Rhino 5

Dear Archimess,

This is intriguing.

Could you be more specific when you mean “and then the dedicated pop-up will work on a button click inside Rhino…” What do you mean by “a button click inside Rhino”?

Thank you.
