Supported Devices

3D Input Devices: Magellan/SpaceMouse / CyberPuck /

SpaceController

NVIDIA QuadroView is pre-configured to work with Logitech, LogiCad

Magellan 3D /Space Mouse and CyberPuck, and Spacetec SpaceController.

These 3D input devices work in QuadroView Examiner Viewer mode; you can

rotate and move the scene in real-time.

You can work with AutoCAD and QuadroView without toggling the focus

between them. For example, you can use the 3D Mouse in QuadroView and the

2D Mouse in AutoCAD, as you normally do. Use the Mouse cap as if it were the

whole scene and rotate or translate the cap as follows:

•

Push or pull the cap in all directions to translate the scene.

•

Rotate the cap in all directions to rotate the scene.

For better handling, you can regulate the speed of translation and rotation. For

example, you can concentrate on specific movements by turning translation or

rotation On/Off. If “dominant input” is turned on, the movement with the

greatest magnitude is executed while the other movement is ignored.

Note: The LogiCad Magellan 3D/Space Mouse keys have the following

functions:
