Hey there! 

 

I haven't tried this myself and there are probably more qualified folks here in the forum, but copying and pasting from some other forum.

 

Fusion works slightly differently, but very nicely with a Wacom. 

First thing you'd want to do is map your MMB to one of the pen's buttons. 

Then, hold down the MMB and move the pen (hold MMB and hover over the tablet) for translations, Alt+MMB (hold MMB and hover over the tablet while pressing Alt) for rotation, and MMB+LMB (hold MMB and draw on the tablet) for zooming. 

Moving and zooming work the same way for the Flow view. 

Once you're used to that you won't want to go back to a mouse. It's a great way to navigate.

 

I hope this helps get your there. Let us know if this helps. If not, someone with some actual experience with Wacom table is lurking out there somewhere. 🙂

 

Thanks,

I use a wacom tablet.  I don't use "gestures" (touch) because it doesn't seem to be supported properly.  I have the driver set to click when I press down (vs hover click).  lower button is right mouse, and upper button is middle mouse.  I've tried many different arrangments, and this seems to be what works best for me.

My intuis pro has a touch ring between the buttons on the side that acts as a mouse scroll wheel. What tablet do you have?

unfortunately that tablet doesn't have the scroll ring, so that won't work for you.  It also don't have multi touch, so you can't pinch zoom (2 finger).

 

the only option I can see would be to hold down the shift and ctrl key on the keyboard while using the pen and whatever button you mapped to be the "middle-mouse-button."  This only zooms in and out from the center of the screen, which is a bit cumbersome.

You are a genius!!

 

I solved it by configuring a "modifier" using one of the buttons on the tablet, works amazingly well!!

I cannot thank you enough, I've been struggling with this for a long time!!
