Note When Move, Rotate, or Scale modes are active, if the mouse is over the transformation gizmo, the mouse left button-drag is used to manage the corresponding actions and so it cannot be used to rotate the camera. However, it is still possible to use all keyboard inputs to navigate even if the mouse is over a transformation gizmo.
Mouse inputs with 3D Editor
Mouse inputs when the configured navigation is 3D Editor.

Function |
Key/Mouse |
Movement |
|---|---|---|
|
Pan (move on xy axis) |
Mouse middle drag |
Moves on local XY plane at configured pan speed. |
|
Turn Camera |
Mouse left drag |
Turns camera at configured rotation speed. Depending on Orbit Target button state and Fly mode button state, the rotation center can be:
|
|
Activate fly mode |
Mouse right drag |
When right mouse button is held, this triggers Fly mode and Fly mode button is activated. Also, camera self rotation occurs at configured rotation speed. Fly mode button turns to its previous state when right mouse button is released. |
|
Zoom (move on z-axis) |
Mouse scroll wheel |
Zooms in and out on current rotation target at zoom speed proportionally to distance. If Fly mode button is selected it moves along local z-axis at pan speed. |
|
Modulate movement speed |
Mouse scroll wheel while pressing input for moving on x-y-z axis |
When Fly mode button is selected, this increases and decreases speed by scrolling in and out while moving with the keyboard inputs. |
|
Precision Zoom |
Mouse left and mouse right concurrent drag. |
Zooms in and out moving along the local z-axis at reduced speed. |
