3Dconnexion 3D mouse integration has been designed to complement LightWave workflow, from modelling assets to lighting, and working with timelines in Layout. Working with 3d mouse gives you many benefits. In Modeler, a 3D mouse gives freedom to navigate views of models while simultaneously selecting commands and editing models with your traditional mouse.
In Layout, a 3D mouse gives an extra level of control over 3D scenes and views with three possible modes – walk, fly and orbit. With LightWave’s Virtual Studio tool and a 3D mouse, artists can create and interact with a virtual 3D set in real time, controlling characters through 3D mouse movements.
