Operating the SpaceExplorer

Controller Cap Navigation

The core of the SpaceExplorer's functionality is its controller cap. Apply gentle pressure to the cap to manipulate 3D models and environments:

• Druk/trek: Zoem in en uit.
• Kantel: Pans the view op, af, links of regs.
• Draai: Rotates the object or scene around its axis.

These movements can be combined for fluid, simultaneous control over all six degrees of freedom (pan, zoom, rotate).

Programmeerbare funksiesleutels

The SpaceExplorer features an array of easy-to-reach function keys. These keys are pre-programmed with commands from leading design applications and automatically map as you switch between applications.

• Numbered Buttons (1, 2): Customizable for your favorite application commands.
• Speed Key: Adjusts navigation sensitivity.
• Views Key: Accesses standard views (e.g., top, front, isometric).
• 2D Only Key: Restricts navigation to 2D movement.
• Fit Key: Instantly positions the model or scene to fit the screen.
• Control Panel Key: Opens the 3Dconnexion control panel for settings adjustments.
• Keyboard Modifiers (ESC, CTRL, ALT, SHIFT): Provides no-look access to common keyboard functions.

Using the SpaceExplorer in conjunction with a standard mouse allows for a two-handed workflow, where one hand navigates the 3D environment and the other performs selections or edits.
