Ok. I assume you will also have object manipulation on the list? This would be essentially the reverse of all other modes: 3dview navigation with 2d mouse, object translation and rotation with the device (don't think scaling fits in this picture well enough). > Do you have any suggestions about where 3D mouse settings should > "live" between blender sessions?

That way it makes sense to have these as user preferences, and they would be accessible in all useful places. No need to figure out different ways to save those between session then will be necessary either - provided the user remembered to callibrate ie for sensitivity first, then save user prefs. I guess it would be great to have such settings saved separately from all other user preferences, but right now I wouldn't put energy into coming up with a way to do that. Rather keep it consistent with current user prefs, and after integration is complete, work on a proposal to make a division of logical parts of user prefs and have them saved separately (as has been discussed several times on ML and in IRC). For fly mode, dominant axis, and other modes I don't think it is necessary to persist those between sessions. /Nathan >>>> Anyway, glad someone is paying attention! > > Hehe, sure :) I just compiled and tried the latest commits.
