Mouse Short Cuts



A few easy short cuts that can be accessed by your mouse are worth posting so here are some.





Middle Mouse Button Pressed + movement of mouse = Rotation





This will rotate the part or Assembly about it's center of mass. *Tip if you middle mouse click on a point or line the part will rotate about this selection.





Control + Middle Mouse Button Pressed = PAN





Shift + Middle Mouse Button Pressed = Zoom





Right Click Hold + Selecting a Part in an assembly = Rotate Specific Component








Rolling Scroll Wheel = Zoom in and out (The zoom direction can be reversed in Options - View)



Remember that pressing the arrow keys will turn your part in 15 degree increments (this is adjustable in Tools - Options - View). *Tip - Shift + Arrow turns by 90 degree increments.
