Navigating the 3D View

For the most part, panning and scaling of the 3D Viewer uses the same controls as the 2D Viewer. For more information about the options available in the 3D Viewer, see Chapter 69, “Using Viewers.” in the DaVinci Resolve Reference Manual or Chapter 7 in the Fusion Reference Manual.


To pan in a 3D Viewer, do the following:

— Hold the middle mouse button and drag in the viewer.

To dolly (zoom) in the 3D Viewer, do one of the following:

— Hold down the middle and left mouse buttons and drag left or right in the viewer.

— Hold down the Command key and use your pointing device’s scroll control.

To rotate around the 3D Viewer, do the following:

— Hold down the Option key and middle-button-drag left and right in the viewer.

If you want to frame certain objects in the viewer:

1 Select the viewer you want to work in.

2 Do one of the following:

— Press Shift-F to Fit all objects in the viewer.

— Press F to Fit to selection (or Fit All if nothing is selected).

— Press D to Rotate the viewer to look at the center of the currently selected object without moving the viewer’s position.


Furthermore, selecting a 3D node in the Node Editor also selects the associated object in the 3D Viewer.
