Using the mouse to fly

  1. Click the Orbital Fly button Orbital Fly on the Globe toolbar.

    The Orbital Fly panel will appear.

  2. Click the globe to begin slow forward flight.
  3. Move the mouse in the direction you want to fly. The flying speed will increase as the mouse moves farther from the middle of the display canvas.
  4. Click the mouse again to stop flying.
Tip:
  • When forward flight is stopped, the right mouse button can be used to increase or decrease altitude.
  • While flying with the mouse, it is useful to use the keyboard to control altitude and pitch.
