Normal mouse assignments are

Left  >>>   Oribital pan (rotate)

Center >>  ZOOM

Right   >> XY pan

Yours may be different . Try the other buttons one at a time.

Rotate was even present way back in Mach2 days so why you cant get it I dont know unless it is Turn you are trying to do it in?

thanks Hood -
Just needed to get a bit more comfortable with mach3 turn - so thats why i am only coming back to this now

I have found that the difference is that my left bouse button and the wheel do the same thing

could you tell me where and how to configure these buttons.

(  If its complicated and a lot of typeing if you would just point me to the section in the manual
and i will read it up myself)
regards fred

Its not complicated or a lot of typing Wink they are not configurable and Left mouse/drag does the same as scroll wheel  in Turn.
