Controls Tab

This allows the user to customize how MarvinSpace reacts to various input events (like mouse motion, clicking etc). Note, that not all, but most of the important actions can be customized.

Parameter

Description

Default style

With this user can select MarvinSpace style association of input actions and events.

Custom style

User can select which mouse event will perform rotation, zooming, translation and will pop up the menu.

Invert zoom

Swaps between zooming policies. By default zoom in is associated to moving mouse away from us (thus towards the scene), while zooming out is done in the opposite direction. However, when this option box is checked the zooming directions swap.

Animated rotation

When checked, rotation will not stop when mouse movement stops but continues for a while depending on the acceleration/deceleration of the mouse while it was moving. This results in an inertia effect. Useless, but nice!
