Mouse Zooming Issues - Polyloop

BrianH · 1st May 2006, 20:58

I'm using Mac OS X 10.4.6 on a Dual 2.7Ghz PowerMac G5 with a 30" Apple Cinema Display, 1.5 GB of DDRRAM with a Radeon 9650. I also have a Logitech MX Laser Cordless mouse. Whenever I am zooming in using the scrool wheel, I get very unwanted results, as if it were zooming in 2x as far as I would like it to and it often pans to a different center point and offsets the original. Any ideas as to why it's doing this? I wasn't sure if this was a bug in Hexagon 2 or just my mouse being funny. Thanks.

Hi

I don't really know

But pressing alt + pressing down the mouse wheel and drag the mouse is much better.

Beware also ,when you importing poser stuffs to scale (at least X10) when you import obj geometries ..maybe it's has nothing to see with your problem ,but it can lead to some bad things because of the tiny Poser' stuffs values

When I press ALT+MMB (Middle Mouse Button) and move the mouse to zoom, it's still offsetting my view. Maybe I'll have to use Snapz Pro X to show you a video screen grab of what it's doing to help better understand the issue.

Ha, we need a keyboard modifier like CNTRL+ALT+RMB for zoom as is done in C5!!! Would be good for tablet users as well!!!

Sorry, couldn't resist
