    3dconnexion mouse; seems Roll and Spin functions swap since upgrade to IV2013.

    Is it just me or have the Roll and Spin functions swapped places?  Ever since I upgrade to 2013, I can't get used to the 3D mouse, something is off and I think it's those 2 things.  Perhaps nothing is wrong, but I can't explain my sudden inability to rotate my parts correctly and I don't remember having any difficulty before installing 2013.

    It wouldn't hurt to download the newest version of the software from 3dConnxion.

    If you download the latest drivers, you can then look in 3Dconnexion properties to see how your mouse is set.

     

    I think the default Zoom direction is. now up/down, instead of forwards/backwards. I have changed it back to forwards/backwards as that is what I am used to. Also if the speed if much faster than you are used to, it can feel completely out of control.
