Overview
This Blender 4.0 add-on enables ZBrush and FPS-like navigation inside 3D view-port
Mouse-look Navigation™ Blender 4.x add-on provides better usability and customization of basic 3D view-port navigation, in particular, ZBrush type of navigation and FPS-like movement. It's an alternative to Blender's default orbit/pan/zoom/dolly/fly/walk navigation. As such, it also adds an isometric view snapping via Alt+LMB drag.
Features
- ZBrush mode - mostly useful for tablet users, since it allows to use the same mouse button both for painting/sculpting and for navigation (depending on whether you clicked on geometry or on background)
 
- Easy switching between navigation modes without exiting the operator
 
- Changes to view-port can be cancelled from any mode
 
- FPS-like movement is available in all navigation modes
 
- Cross-hair is visible in all modes and has a different look when obscured
 
- Option to more easily prevent accidental view-port rotation in Ortho projection
 
- Different turntable/trackball algorithms and different fly mode (more FPS-like)
 
- Isometric viewport snapping
 
Upon installation, you can choose your preferred navigation via Blender or ZBrush preset or define your own under the add-on preferences
Thank you for your support!
