Change Pan, Zoom, & Orbit Controls in Powermill

Sorry, this is a very basic question from someone completely new to Powermilll.

Is there any way to change the Pan, Zoom, & Orbit controls to match other software packs?

I am hoping to be able to get it set up like Solidworks. I have looked in the options and searched the help/form but can't seem to find a way.

I know Fusion 360 has an option for doing this: https://www.autodesk.com/products/fusion-360/blog/quick-tip-pan-zoom-orbit-preferences/

I don't believe there is any option to do this in Powermill.

That being said, I would highly recommend anyone in this industry to use a space mouse, such as 3d Connexion, with programmable buttons. (The programmable buttons can also be configured based on the currently running cad software...it is smart and knows to switch what the button does from Autodesk to SolidWorks for example )

For years I used only a standard mouse, but once I got used to the Space Mouse...I couldn't believe how much better it was!

The only thing I use my regular mouse is for moving my cursor around and clicking.

Big thanks to all who contribute!
