      Has any body have used the Microsoft touch mouse with sketchup? I have one, but I don't know how to use the orbit feature with it, with my old mouse I can orbit 3d objects with the scroll button of the mouse.

        The 'Arc touch mouse' does have a middle-button 'silver-strip' BUT Microsoft seem to have ignored how people use a mouse [they've only sold a few billion 3-button-mice!] - it's the one big gripe that most purchasers of their new mouse have... you can't do middle-clicks and other middle-button operations, that I for one do hundreds of times a day, in all sorts of apps πŸ˜’
        I would NOT recommend getting one...

          I've seen its review a few days ago and was very skeptic about its comfort for an intensive usage...but I didn't notice this lack πŸ‘Ž πŸ‘Ž πŸ‘Ž πŸ˜†

            Ha! A classic MS fail! 🀣 πŸ˜†

            But here's a plug for an awesome mouse- a trackball made by Logitech (if you can manage with a trackball? Some folk dislike them though πŸ˜• ). I got new one which is wireless and it's utterly brilliant imho. It's an M570.
