FreeCAD's '''musmodell''' är mycket flexibel och intuitiv och med några tips så kan du använda den redan efter någon minuts träning.


== Selecting a navigation style ==
[[Image:Mouse-model.png]]


# Do one of the following:
== Välja objekt ==
#* Press the {{Button|[[File:NavigationCAD_dark.svg|16px]]}} button in the [[Status_bar|Status bar]].
Objekt kan väljas med ett klick med den vänstra musknappen antingen genom att klicka på objektet i 3D-vyn eller genom att välja den i trädvyn. Det finns även en Förvals mekanism som markerar objekt och visar information om dem bara genom att hålla markören över den. Om du inte gillar det beteendet eller om du har en långsam maskin, så kan du stänga av förval i inställningarna.
#* Right-click an empty area in the [[3D_view|3D view]], and select {{MenuCommand|Navigation styles}} from the context menu.
#* Use the [[Preferences_Editor#Navigation|Preferences Editor]]. In the menu select {{MenuCommand|Edit → Preferences}} and then {{MenuCommand|Display → Navigation → 3D Navigation}}.
# Select a style from the list.
# Optionally change the {{MenuCommand|Orbit style}}: press the {{Button|[[File:NavigationCAD_dark.svg|16px]]}} button in the [[Status_bar|Status bar]] and then choose {{MenuCommand|Settings → Orbit style}}. See [[Preferences_Editor#Navigation|Preferences Editor]].
# Optionally change the {{MenuCommand|Rotation mode}}. See [[Preferences_Editor#Navigation|Preferences Editor]].
# If the {{MenuCommand|CAD}} navigation style is selected: optionally change the {{MenuCommand|Enable animation}} setting. See [[Preferences_Editor#Navigation|Preferences Editor]].


== Hantera Objekt ==
== Available navigation styles ==
Objekthanteringen är gemensam för alla arbetsbänkar. Följande musgester kan användas till att kontrollera objektposition och vy.


With all navigation styles, unless selecting objects from a sketch in edit mode, you must hold {{KEY|Ctrl}} to select multiple objects.
;Välj: Klicka med den vänstra musknappen över det objekt som du vill välja.


<span id="Blender_navigation"></span>
;Zoom: Använd ''+'' eller ''-'' tangenterna eller mushjulet för att zooma in och ut.
<div class="mw-translate-fuzzy">

=== Blender Navigation ===
;Panorera: Klicka med den mittre musknappen och flytta runt objektet .

;Rotera: Klicka först med den mittre musknappen, håll den nedtryckt och klicka sedan med den vänstra musknappen på en synlig del av ett objekt och dra den i den önskade riktningen. Detta fungerar som en boll som snurrar runt dess centrum. Om du släpper knapparna innan du stoppar rörelsen, så kommer objektet fortsätta att rotera, om detta är aktiverat.

;Ställa in rotationscentrum: Ett dubbelklick med den mittre musknappen på valfri del av objektet ställer in ett nytt roationscentrum och zoomar in på denna punkt.

== Manipulera Objekt ==
FreeCAD har [[manipulator/sv|manipulatorer]] som kan användas till att ändra ett objekt eller dess visuella utseende. Ett enkelt exempel är [[Std ClippingPlane/sv|klippningsplan]] som kan aktiveras med ''Visa?Klippningsplan'' menyn. Efter aktivering så kommer klippningsplan objektet fram och visar sju självklara manipulatorer som små lådor: En på varje ände på dess tre koordinataxlar och en på dentrum på den axel som är normal till planet. Det finns fyra till som inte är så självklara: Själva planet och den tunna delen på de tre axelobjekten.

;Skalning: För att skala objektet klicka med den vänstra musknappen på lådmanipulatorerna vid slutet på axlarna och dra dem bakåt och framåt. Beroende på objektet så arbetar manipulatorerna oberoende eller synkront.
;Flytta ut ur planet: För att flytta objektet längs dess normalvektor, dra i den långa lådan vid axelns centrum med den vänstra musknappen. För klippningsplanet finns det endast en manipulator längs normalvektorn.
;Flytta i planet: För att flytta klippningsplanets centrum, klicka på planobjektet och dra den till den önskade positionen.
;Rotation: Klicka på den tunna delen av axlarna sätter manipulatorn i rotationsläge.

The Blender navigation style was modeled after [https://www.blender.org Blender].
== Navigation ==

The mouse gestures used for object manipulation vary depending on the Navigation style selected; the currently selected style is used for all workbenches.

There are two ways to change the navigation style:

* In the [[Preferences_Editor#Navigation|Preferences Editor]]; menu {{MenuCommand|Edit → Preferences → Display → Navigation → 3D Navigation}}.
* By right-clicking in empty space in the 3D view, then selecting {{MenuCommand|Navigation styles}} in the context menu.

<div class="mw-translate-fuzzy">
The Blender Navigation was modeled after [http://www.blender.org Blender]. Previously there was no mouse-only panning, and it required use of the {{KEY|SHIFT}} key to pan the view. This changed in 2016 with a feature-addition. In order to pan the view, you can now press both left and right mouse buttons and drag in the view.
=== OpenInventor Navigation ===
{{Blender Navigation
In OpenInventor (formerly Inventor) Navigation, modeled after [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Open_Inventor Open Inventor] (not to be confused with Autodesk Inventor), there is no mouse-only selection. In order to select objects, you must hold down the {{KEY|CTRL}} key.

Overview

The FreeCAD mouse navigation consists of the commands used to visually navigate the 3D space and interact with the objects displayed. FreeCAD supports multiple mouse 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 which you can choose according to your preferences.

For more information about selecting objects see Selection methods.

For more information about manipulating objects see Std TransformManip.

Selecting a navigation style

  1. Do one of the following:
    • Press the button in the Status bar.
    • Right-click an empty area in the 3D view, and select Navigation styles from the context menu.
    • Use the Preferences Editor. In the menu select Edit → Preferences and then Display → Navigation → 3D Navigation.
  2. Select a style from the list.
  3. Optionally change the Orbit style: press the button in the Status bar and then choose Settings → Orbit style. See Preferences Editor.
  4. Optionally change the Rotation mode. See Preferences Editor.
  5. If the CAD navigation style is selected: optionally change the Enable animation setting. See Preferences Editor.

Available navigation styles

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

Blender Navigation

The Blender navigation style was modeled after Blender.

The Blender Navigation was modeled after Blender. Previously there was no mouse-only panning, and it required use of the SHIFT key to pan the view. This changed in 2016 with a feature-addition. In order to pan the view, you can now press both left and right mouse buttons and drag in the view.

Select Pan Zoom Rotate view
Shift+
Press the left mouse button over an object you want to select. Hold Shift and the middle mouse button, then move the pointer.

Alternatively, hold both left and right mouse buttons, and then move the pointer.

Use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out. Hold the middle mouse button, then move the pointer.

Alternatively, hold both left and right mouse buttons, and then move the pointer. |Zoom_text=Use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out. |Rotate_view_text=Hold the middle mouse button, then move the pointer. }}

CAD navigation

CAD Navigation (default)

This is the default navigation style and allows the user a simple control of the view, and does not require the use of keyboard keys except to make multi-selections.

Select Pan Zoom Rotate view
First method 		Rotate view
Alternate method
Press the left mouse button over an object you want to select.

Holding down Ctrl allows the selection of multiple objects.

Hold the middle mouse button, then move the pointer. Use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out.

Clicking the middle mouse button re-centers the view on the location of the cursor.

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.

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.

Users who use the mouse with their right hand may find this method easier than the first method.

Gesture Navigation (v0.16)

This style was tailored for use with a touchscreen and pen. Nevertheless, it can also be used with a mouse, and is recommended for use when using a Mac with a trackpad.

This navigation style was tailored for usability with touchscreen and pen, but is very usable with mouse too.

Select Pan Zoom Rotate view Tilt view
Press the left mouse button over an object you want to select. Hold the right mouse button, then move the pointer. Use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out. Hold the left mouse button, then move the pointer.

In Sketcher and other edit modes, this behavior is disabled. Hold Alt when pressing the mouse button to enter rotation mode.

To set the camera's focus point for rotation, click a point with the middle mouse button. Alternatively, aim the cursor at a point and press H on the keyboard.

Hold both left and right mouse buttons, and then move the pointer sideways.
Tap to select. Drag with two fingers.

Alternatively, tap and hold, then drag. This simulates the pan with the right mouse button.

Drag two fingers (pinch) closer or farther apart. Drag with one finger to rotate.

Hold Alt when in the Sketcher.

Rotate the imaginary line formed by two touch points.

On v0.18 this method is disabled by default. To enable, go to Edit → Preferences → Display, and untick "Disable touchscreen tilt gesture" checkbox.

Alternatively, tap and hold, then drag. This simulates the pan with the right mouse button. |Zoom_text=Use the mouse wheel to zoom in and out. |Zoom_gesture_text=Drag two fingers (pinch) closer or farther apart. |Rotate_view_text=Hold the left mouse button, then move the pointer. In Sketcher and other edit modes, this behavior is disabled. Hold Alt when pressing the mouse button to enter rotation mode.

Maya-Gesture Navigation

In Maya-Gesture Navigation, panning, zooming, and rotating the view require the Alt key together with a mouse button; therefore, a three-button mouse is required. It's also possible to use gestures as this style was developed over the Gesture navigation style.

In Maya-Gesture Navigation, all view movements are activated pressing ALT and a mouse button, so that it will be needed to have a 3 button mouse in order to correctly use this navigation mode. Alternately it's possible to use gestures as this mode was been developed over the normal Gesture Navigation mode.

Touchpad Navigation

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.

Hardware support

FreeCAD also supports some 3D input devices.

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.

Developing a custom navigation

The tutorial 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.
