Mouse Button Bindings
Default Bindings
- Mouse button 1 - Rotate
Rotate the object about an axis in the plane of the monitor screen.
- Mouse button 2: horizontal drag - Zoom
Translate the object in the direction perpendicular to the monitor screen.
- Mouse button 2: vertical drag - Spin
Rotate the object about the axis perpendicular to the plane of the monitor screen.
- Mouse button 3 - Pan
Translate the surface in the plane of the monitor screen.
Projective and Conformal Geometry Models
The three tables below specify the mu mouse button bindings for 4-, 3- and 2-dimensional projective and conformal models of Euclidean and non-Euclidean geometries.
Translations are interpreted according as the geometry mode chosen is parabolic, elliptic and hyperbolic.
The 2-dimensional table is the same as the 3-dimensional table but with appropriate motions disabled. The 4-dimensional table has the same format as a restriction of the Möbius geometry table below. Because the 3-dimensional table is the most commonly used, it has a compactified form which is not the restriction of the 4-dimensional table.
Use the R and T keys to choose between Rotations and Translations (dimension 4 only).

Möbius Geometry Model
The three tables below specify the mu mouse button bindings for 4-, 3- and 2-dimensional Möbius geometries.
Translations and inverse translations are interpreted according as the geometry mode chosen is parabolic, elliptic and hyperbolic.
The 3- and 2-dimensional tables are the same as the 4-dimensional table but with appropriate motions disabled.
Use the R, T, I and S keys to choose between Rotations, Translations, Inverse translations (translations of infinity) and homothety (Scaling).
dimension 4dimension 3 (same as dimension 4 but with w-motions disabled)
mode button 1 button 2 button 3 rotation [R] u Rxz + v Ryz u Rxy + v Rzw u Rxw + v Ryw translation [T] u Tx + v Ty u Tz + v Tw inverse translation [I] u Ux + v Uy u Uz + v Uw homothety [S] u S
dimension 2 (same as dimension 4 but with w- and z-motions disabled)
mode button 1 button 2 button 3 rotation [R] u Rxz + v Ryz u Rxy translation [T] u Tx + v Ty u Tz inverse translation [I] u Ux + v Uy u Uz homothety [S] u S
