SAT-Flare Tracker 3D
MOUSE USAGE
The mouse can be used in the main graphical Work Window to
change both the observer's angle of view and the zoom factor. In
addition the mouse can work in combination with some keyboard's keys
for setting important parameters during the generation of IOD observation reports. The list of functions follows (buttons and keys are highlighted within brackets [ ]):
Basic functions:
- [LEFT BUTTON] + MOUSE LEFT/RIGHT: rotate the Earth around its rotation axis.
- [LEFT BUTTON] + MOUSE UP/DOWN: tilt the Earth.
- [RIGHT BUTTON] + MOUSE LEFT/RIGHT: rotate the Earth around the graphical Z axis. (Useful in Horizon view mode).
- [SHIFT] + [LEFT BUTTON] + MOUSE MOVE: move the Earth position.
- [LEFT BUTTON] + [RIGHT BUTTON] + MOVE UP/DOWN: change the zoom factor.
Advanced functions for IOD reports:
- [ALT] + [DOUBLE LEFT CLIK]: activate / deactivate the Sky pointer.
- [CTRL] + [DOUBLE LEFT CLIK]: add a point to the IOD report.
- [ALT] + MOUSE UP/DOWN: set the time uncertainty for the next point.
- [CTRL] + MOUSE UP/DOWN: set the position uncertainty for the next point (the position uncertainty is also the field of view, FOV).
Note. The [F5] key, or the Zero Orientation button in the Views frame, can be used to reset the view angle.
