Request help on tool tips, 3d spacemouse

[critterpaint]

Hello
Any way of speeding up the little menu when you hover the mouse. It’s takes a very long time for it to load the tip, sometimes times not at all.

Love the program. Moving around seems opposite of bamboo studio. It would be nice if they were both the same.

Does layerling work with the 3d spacemouse?

thanks

@critterpaint thanks, Aldo, glad you like it.

Tooltips: the names that pop up are the browser's own tooltips, and the browser decides how long it waits before showing them, so layerling cannot speed them up. Greyed-out icons showed none at all in Chrome and Edge until recently; since layerling 1.120.0 they do. To find out right away what a button does, click the question mark at the top right (Interactive Help, or Shift+F1) and then the button.

Moving around like Bambu Studio: I added a setting for it. In the settings (the cogwheel), under Appearance, set Mouse buttons to "Like Bambu Studio and OrcaSlicer": a left drag on empty space then turns the view, the right button shifts it, and Shift with a left drag draws the selection box.

SpaceMouse: layerling now works with one in Chrome and Edge. In the same place, click Connect 3D mouse once and pick it in the window the browser opens. I don't have one here to try it, so please tell me if a direction feels the wrong way round.

Both come with the next release.

If you'd like to give something back, a small donation helps keep layerling free.

@critterpaint both are out now in layerling 1.122.0. In the settings (the cogwheel), under Appearance: Mouse buttons → "Like Bambu Studio and OrcaSlicer", and Connect 3D mouse for the SpaceMouse. If a direction of the SpaceMouse feels the wrong way round, just tell me.

Thank you.
I use the app not the browser. The tool tips do work better in the browser, I’ll just switch over to browser.
Thanks again

@critterpaint thanks for telling me, Aldo. In the installed app the browser's own tooltips come late or not at all, so I changed that: there, layerling now shows the name of a button itself, in a small bubble a moment after the mouse stops on it. It comes with the next release; until then the browser works just as well.

@critterpaint this is out now in layerling 1.124.0: in the installed app, the name of a button now comes up in a small bubble a moment after the mouse stops on it.

@critterpaint thanks again for the hint about the directions. A user with a real SpaceMouse showed that four of them ran the wrong way round. They are turned round in layerling 1.141.0, out now, and under 3D mouse in the settings each direction has a switch to reverse it.
