<p>The "navigate tool" is slick looking, but it forces to associate the zoomed-out map and the real thing in my tiny brain.</p>
<p>I like to focus on the "real thing", and now that I have changed the end color of the selected component's wires to purple instead of grey, I do a lot of "wire following".</p>
<p>And that would be greatly enhanced by 3D mouse : simultaneously zoom out and pan, and then dive like mad on my prey/component. </p>

<p>Yes that's one problem, though only one window can have focus at any one time, so it should technically be possible to make a clear distinction between when Rhino and when GH should be panned.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I still find that Navigate works really well for large files though, just a shame it's two clicks away from regular navigation.…</p>

<p>HE he... if it's not difficult, you won't be interested by lack of challenge, and it won't get done ;)</p>
<p>With Grasshopper embedded in Rhino 6, will the 3D mouse know when the focus is on Rhino and when it is on GH ?</p>
<p>It sure would help panning and zooming in those large definitions.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Cheers,</p>

<p>3D mice have at least 2 programmable buttons, so I suppose that, once this is working, it would be easy to assign GH actions to those buttons.</p>
<p></p>
<p>I think that the main hurdle for now is that the 3D mouse doesn't "see" GH and the focus stays on Rhino. </p>

<p>If there was a wish for functionality above and beyond Up, Down, Left, Right, In and Out what would it be?</p>
<p></p>
<p>I think access to the Radial Menu with a shortcut key and selection of the commands preview and bake etc might be interesting.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Also a rotation left and right to grow selection upstream and down stream possibly.</p>
<p></p>
<p>Anyone else have any thoughts on the matter?</p>

<p>It would be cool...</p>
<p>But IF this will be done, I hope there would be also a "toggle" button for who want to keep the old method...</p>
<p>I like to edit sliders and stuff while rotating the rhino viewport... I think this is also useful...</p>
