I wish it were possible to customize mouse behavior in Revit and Revit LT - or at least to get back to original settings before I pressed some key combination accidentally.
IIFC, I could orbit by pressing down the scroll wheel and pan by pressing the right mouse button. Now, when I press the scroll wheel I pan, and the right mouse button does nothing. I can't remember what I did to change things because it was unintentional.
I know you can orbit if you also press the shift key, but that shouldn't be the only way to do it. I'm also not a fan of the steering wheels (I find them to be constantly underfoot and annoying) or the view cube.
I have an inexpensive thumbwheel mouse and Revit LT. I was able to customize things more easily in a much older version of Autocad LT so don't see why that's not possible here.
Apologies if this question has already been answered, but I searched A LOT and couldn't find anything.
There is a wheel navigation next to view cube. Click on that and you can click on orbit without holding down shift. However you have to hold it which is a bummer. If you like to map the orbit, just support this idea

Thanks, syman2000. I do know about the steering wheels. Maybe I'm too picky, but I'm not a fan of them and also don't think I should have to press the shift key every time I want to orbit.
Revit should be able to orbit by just clicking the right mouse button and dragging. The shift button is unnecessary. Please someone at Revit Fix this or provide an option.
Buy a 3DCONNEXION mouse. You can use it by itself or along with your regular mouse.

Feature requests belong in the IDEAS forum.
It's now almost 2025. Fusion is the software of 1,000,000,000 paper cuts... and people with Stockholm syndrome reply to dead simple problems with a solution describing a thousand step process or by recommending buying a 7 dimensional mouse.
For those that want to do this, you can easily get right click only orbit with X-mouse button control.
Although I don't know what will you then do for right click.
