It uses a variation on Ken Shoemake's Arcball (it doesn't spin at double the mouse speed); however, this variation spoils a nice feature of the original Arcball (as Scott Shambaugh pointed out): if you move the mouse back the original point on the screen, this would return the view to the original view.\r\n\r\nIt would be desirable to be able to choose what kind of mouse rotation style one wants (Ken Shoemake's original Arcball, or the not-the-double-speed variation of the PR, or Holroyd's arcball, or a Trackball, or indeed the original matplotlib style which does not control `roll`, much like in matlab).\r\n\n\n### Proposed solution\n\nMake the mouse rotation style selectable using `rcParams`. Perhaps `axes3d.mouserotation` ?","author":{"url":"https://github.com/MischaMegens2","@type":"Person","name":"MischaMegens2"},"datePublished":"2024-06-17T03:46:40.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":9},"url":"https://github.com/28408/matplotlib/issues/28408"}
