Question for those using a Space Navigator...

Finally got one and it's da bomb, yo!  I feel like a stooge for not having one for the prior 10 years.

 

Anyway, is there a way to configure the buttons for different environments in Inventor?  Like 2D Sketch, etc.?

 

It would be great if I could have it preset so that in sketch mode it only is set to Pan & Zoom and then in model/default mode it is set to all movement.

 

TIA 🙂

I don't think there is a way to set it to only 2D motion in sketch enviroment.

 

But one tip - I prefer to change from the default (or at least was the default) motion of Pan.

I want pan Up/Down to be the same lateral motion as pan Right/Left rather than pulling up/down on the puck.

I prefer that motion to be the Zoom.

Space navigator I don't believe there is a way I have the Space Explorer and it has a button to do this.

I would NOT want that.. There are times when you need to do 3d movements in a 2d sketch.. Like maybe to project geometry.
