When I go into the design screen to build a custom ship, how do I rotate the ship around to see it from different angles?
I can move it around and zoom in and out but not rotate. Is that a limitation of this version?
There's a number of people who have asked questions about this - at the very least it doesn't seem like it's an intuitive control, and could use improvement.
I suggest right-click-and-drag, or wasd. Both are a little more standard.
hold a mouse button and move to turn the ship, it doesn't get much more intuitive than that.
Well, I have a Microsoft wheel mouse, 2 buttons and a wheel with 2 additional buttons at the sides. In order to rotate a ship in the design, I had use the Microsoft Mouse and Keyboard Center program and configure one of the side buttons to be a middle-click.
Then I could press this side button and rotate however I wanted.
OK, my 2c....this is NOT intuitive.
Pressing down on the wheel is a third main mouse button. Or should be.
Pressing down on the wheel is a third main mouse button. Or should be.
The default for the pressing down the wheel is "flip". Makes sense! It's Microsoft!

Oh, and looking at it again I find I can reprogram the mouse wheel push to also be a middle button press, which as you suggest, it what it "should" have been.
Well none of the mentioned options work with a laptop mouse/trackpad.
I have tried every combination on my Lenovo X1 laptop and none work.
Hope there is a plan to fix this obvious oversight..
