Is it possible to pan the view in the preview pane? I was hoping there'd be some obvious keyboard combination to enable this, but I can't find any mention of "panning" in the docs. All the mouse key combinations I've tried just rotate the view while maintaining the origin in the center of the pane. -- View this message in context: http://forum.openscad.org/How-to-pan-in-the-preview-pane-tp11109.html Sent from the OpenSCAD mailing list archive at Nabble.com.

Sorry, I meant to say I'm running Linux on a Macbook. Neither of those seem to work in Gnome.

FreeCAD gets around this by having a "touchpad mouse" interface you can select. With that, you pan with a click and drag while holding shift.

Hold Control down while using the track pad and it should act like a right mouse button. There may be control panel settings that affect this behavior, however.

This doesn't work for me. The view still rotates around the origin regardless of how the Control key is pressed. On Tue, Jan 20, 2015 at 4:46 PM, David B.
