I've had requests for changing the 3D view controls for navigating in the 3D view. How would you like to navigate in the 3D view?

I get along very well with the 3D view. It's only that I sometimes would like to be able to select things there, but that's not a navigation issue.

This is taken from my email I sent you. I think these controls, and the existing mouse controls can happily co-exist together.

I know how to do it. It's just very difficult to do. In QERadient, and I think Unreal Ed, they had this really good system. It was so easy to move around the maps. With your program, it's really difficult.

Up and Down went forwads and backwards.

Left and Right would rotate you in place (like you were in an fps).

A would look up.
Z would look down. (kind of like duke nukem) But if you were looking
up or down, you still move straigh forward, and straigh back.

Page Up and Page Down would move you up or down.

Hmm maybe if you push F8 or something, you can rotate around the selected object in 3D-View, useful for moddelers. I'd say.
