Orbit

The Orbit Mode is the default navigation mode when loading a model in RIM-Nat. This mode allows users to explore a 3D model by rotating around a central point.

Controls

In Orbit mode, navigation is one-handed, using only the mouse:

• Left-click and drag: Rotates the model around its center of rotation while maintaining the orientation of the Z-axis.
• Double left-click: Moves the rotation point to the clicked area and zooms in on this area of interest.
• Right-click and drag: Pans the model within the current view plane.
• Mouse wheel: Zooms in or out.

Recommended Use Cases

Orbit mode is recommended for:

• Model Navigation: Orbit mode is optimized for navigating around the model, allowing users to maintain an overview while moving easily through different parts of the scene.
• Analysis and Annotation: This mode is particularly well-suited for taking measurements and working on the 3D model.
