spacepilot: how to rotate in acad?

Post by gok »

Can not figure out how to rotate in Acad 2007.
Pan, zoom works fine.
Rotation in all directions works fine with Google Earth

Thank you, Fred, for prompt respond!

2 things solved my problem:
1. use Wireframe 3D (not 2D!)
2. Set Center Of Rotation (first button in 3Dconnexion menu) to middle of drawing. Default rotation center probably at (0,0,0)

I love Fit button!
