Pan and Orbit Problems
-
OK folks, I've lost my middle wheel orbit, and my m wheel+ shift panning ability it seems. It was acting up for a half hour or so, not responding well when I tried to use the middle wheel, but now it's totally broken and I can't do either. If I pick the orbit or pan tool both work.
I can still zoom with it but I guess it's obvious my m wheel's broken, or could it be something else?

Yep, sounds like your mouse. Did you feed it lately? Maybe you need a new one...
-
poor little mouse
-
your computer didn't do an update of your mouse driver, did it?
perhaps this thread could be of use for you (fourth post or so...)

Ouuu, I don't know Plot, how would I check that out?
I can't close browser tabs now with center wheel click so I bet it's just worn out.

My central wheel click seems to be dying as well - sometimes it's just a pain to get it to work.
I guess "normal" mouse manufacturers simply do not count with sketchuppers! and underdesign its durability.
Oh well, it will still be OK for other things...
-
That is why I have a gaming class mouse (Logitech MX518), they tend to be more durable (and more expensive).

...and you can change the mouse's balance with a set of weights
I have no idea how to balance it correctly though (just made it as heavy as possible)
