Pivot angle on Z-Axis vs going forward in Blender.

Is there a way to pivot the angle on Z-Axis up or down (like looking down on a the mesh) vs going forward. By default it just goes forward.

Thanks,

Yes, I'm on a Mac. I'm running the latest version of blender, v5.2 but I still can't tilt the view when I push forward.. It just goes forward and doesn't tilt down. How would you distinguish between going forward vs a tilt up/down?

Thanks,

With Blender v. 5.20 and 3DxWare 10.8.13, i configured the settings as follows:

To align Blender's navigation behavior with the 3Dconnexion app 3DxDemo, open 3Dconnexion Home and select Properties.
In the Device list, select your SpaceMouse.
From the Configure: application list, select Blender. Apply the following settings:

• Tilt Backward → Tilt Forward
  Tilt Forward → Tilt Backward
  Roll Left → Roll Right
  Roll Right → Roll Left
  Spin Clockwise → Spin Counterclockwise
  Spin Counterclockwise → Spin Clockwise

These settings ensure Blender's rotational behavior matches 3DxDemo, with no inverted axes.
Note: Leave Blender's Lock Horizon option unchecked.
