Hi @Dinutzu08,

Welcome to the Fusion 360 community! This forum discussion may be related to your issue.

I believe you need to change some settings for your mouse. What mouse are you using?

hey,

I assume by "that Logitech program" you are referring to Logitech Options, if so then no need to uninstall, just open the Logitech Options app, select your mouse and then click on the location where it shows the middle button on the image, and change it from "Gesture button" to "Middle button".

Autodesk you have to consider some alternative option for users that may use some mouses that doesn't have middle mouse button.

E,g this Logitec (https://www.logitech.com/en-us/product/mx-anywhere-2s-flow) is a pretty good mouse but the middle mouse switches the rotation mechanism of the wheel and you can't adjust this in the driver options.

The solution for me was to blow on the middle button (scroll wheel). Sounds like a prank, but it's not! Now I can pan using the middle button on my Logitech M210 mouse!

I have a Logitech M185, and my middle button began working intermittently which was frustrating. I blew in and around the middle button, and it seems to be working fine now.

Holy crap, it worked. I almost felt silly trying it, but it worked right away.

Me too! I have a Utech smart venus gaming mouse and scroll was fine but middle button won't work. Blow and a bunch of "rage clicks" worked for me!

Ok I have same problem with genius and logitech mouse.

Solution was to go to preferences in Fusion 360 and change the "Pan,Zoom,Orbit shortcuts option to Solidworks

This solved the problem for me.

I'm having this issue, the only problem is, it didn't start until today's update for fusion.. now, my MMB works fine, as long as fusion isn't running, but the second fusion opens, all MMB funcionality stops working (beyond scroll) as soon as i close fusion360 again, my MMB functions as it should.
