The FreeCAD '''mouse model''' consists of the commands used to visually navigate the 3D space and interact with the objects displayed. FreeCAD supports multiple mouse model navigation styles. The default navigation style is referred to as "CAD Navigation," and is very simple and practical, but FreeCAD also provides alternative navigation styles, that you can choose according to your preferences.

|[[Getting_started|Getting started]]
The object handling is common to all workbenches. The following mouse gestures can be used to control the object position and view according to which Navigation style is selected.

There are two ways to change the navigation style:


==Overview==
* In the [[Preferences Editor]], Display section, ''3D View'' tab;
* By right-clicking in empty space in the 3D view area, then selecting ''Navigation style'' in the contextual menu.

|Rotate_view_text=Hold the middle mouse button, then press and hold the left mouse button, then move the pointer.

The cursor location when the middle mouse button is pressed determines the center of rotation. Rotation works like spinning a ball which rotates around its center. If the buttons are released before you stop the mouse motion, the view continues [[spinning]], if this is enabled.

A double click with the middle mouse button sets a new center of rotation.

Objects can be selected by a click with the left mouse button either by clicking on the object in the 3D-view or by selecting it in the tree view.


{{OpenSCAD_Navigation
=== Preselection ===
|Select_name=Select
There is also a ''Preselection'' mechanism that highlights objects and displays information before selection by just hovering the mouse over the objects. If you don't like this behaviour or you have a slow machine, you can switch preselection off in the preferences.

== Manipulating Objects ==
|Pan_text=Hold the right mouse button, then move the pointer.
FreeCAD offers ''manipulators'' that are handles that can be used to modify an object's appearance, shape, or other parameters.
|Zoom_text=Hold the middle mouse button, then move the pointer.
Alternatively, hold {{KEY|Shift}} and the right mouse button, then move the pointer.
|Rotate_view_text=Hold the left mouse button, then move the pointer.


Alternatively, and when a sketch is in edit mode, hold the middle mouse button, then press and hold the right mouse button, then move the pointer.
The [[clipping plane]] is a good example of an object with manipulators. A [[clipping plane]] can be activated with the ''View→Clipping Plane'' menu. After activation the clipping plane object appears and shows seven obvious manipulators as little boxes: One on each end of its three coordinate axes and one on the center of the plane normal axis. There are four more that are not as obvious: The plane itself and the thin part of the three axis objects.
}}


=== Revit navigation ===
;Scaling: To scale the object click with the left mouse button on the box manipulators at the end of the axes and pull them back and forth. Depending on the object the manipulators work independently or synchronously.

;Out of plane shifting: To shift the object along its normal vector, pull the long box on the center of an axis with the left mouse button. For the clipping plane there is only one manipulator along the normal vector.
The Revit navigation style was modeled after [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Autodesk_Revit Revit].
;In plane shifting: To move the center of the clipping plane, click on the plane object and pull it to the desired location.

;Rotation: Clicking on the thin part of the axes puts the manipulator in rotation mode.

On MacBooks with a trackpad the Gesture navigation works very well, but the gestures have a special meaning:
* Zoom: drag with two fingers.
* Rotate: drag with three fingers.
* Pan: {{KEY|Ctrl}} + three fingers.

== Developing a custom navigation ==

The tutorial [[Adding_a_new_mouse_navigation_option_to_FreeCAD|Adding a new mouse navigation option to FreeCAD]] orients developers who want to develop a custom mouse navigation option. Familiarity with the C++ syntax is required.


Recently we got reports [http://forum.freecadweb.org/viewtopic.php?f=3&t=3592&start=0 on the forum] from Mac users that those mouse button and key combination do not work as expected. Unfortunately, none of the developers owns a Mac, neither do the other regular contributors. We need your help to determine which mouse buttons and key combination work so we can update this wiki.

Overview

Penggunaan mouse di FreeCAD berisi perintah - perintah yang digunakan untuk navigasi pada tampilan 3D dan berinteraksi dengan objek yang di tampilkan. Ada tiga mode navigasi yang berbeda. Navigasi standar (default) mengarah pada "CAD Navigation,"yang sangat simpel dan praktis, tetapi FreeCAD juga memiliki 2 alternativ mode navigasi yaitu mode Inventor dan mode Blender.

For more information about selecting objects see Selection methods.

For more information about manipulating objects see Std TransformManip.

Selecting a navigation style

  • Di menu Edit, Preferences Editor, pilih pada bagian Display, klik pada tab 3D View ;
  • Dengan klik-kanan pada bagian tampilan 3d yang kosong, kemudian klik Navigation style dan pilih mode yang diinginkan.

Available navigation styles

With all navigation styles, unless selecting objects from a sketch in edit mode, you must hold Ctrl to select multiple objects.

The cursor location when the middle mouse button is pressed determines the center of rotation. Rotation works like spinning a ball which rotates around its center. If the buttons are released before you stop the mouse motion, the view continues spinning, if this is enabled.

A double click with the middle mouse button sets a new center of rotation.

Hold the middle mouse button, then press and hold the right mouse button, then move the pointer.

With this method the middle mouse button may be released after the right mouse button is held pressed.

With the Touchpad navigation style, panning, zooming, and rotating the view require a modifier key together with the touchpad. This style can also be used with a mouse.

In Touchpad Navigation, neither panning, nor zooming, nor rotating the view, are mouse-only (or touchpad-only) operations.

Select Pan Zoom Rotate view
Shift+ PageUp, PageDown Alt+
Press the left mouse button over an object you want to select. Hold Shift, then move the pointer. Use PageUp and PageDown to zoom in and out. Hold Alt, then move the pointer.
Ctrl+Shift+ Shift+
Alternatively, hold Shift and Ctrl, then move the pointer. Alternatively, hold Shift and the left button, then move the pointer.

Recommended navigation for macOS

On MacBooks with a trackpad the Gesture navigation works very well, but the gestures have a special meaning:

  • Zoom: drag with two fingers.
  • Rotate: drag with three fingers.
  • Pan: Ctrl + three fingers.
