Please please add this. I jump between CAD and Illustrator frequently and this would greatly improve my experience in Illustrator.

I agree with everyone here. Just getting used to my 3d mouse and I keep switching from a 3d app to Ai and I'm constantly reaching for the 3d mouse.

Would love to see 3D CONNEXION space navigator compatability. Zoom and panning and adjustable sensitivity on the movements so it can be ramped up for those who are efficient with the space navigator. I use it a lot with 3D modelling software and during my day when I switch to illustrator, I am always reaching for the space navigator to zoom and pan.
P.S. Adobe you should totally get into the 3D modelling / rendering world and bring out a program.

Can you share your autoHotKey script ?

@Kenneth I use a 3D connection CAD Mouse (and CAD Mouse wireless) with Ai and have an 'AutoHotKey' Script setup so that when I use the middle mouse button in Ai it clicks L Mouse and Spacebar to active drag panning. Very helpful and might save you some clicks and moves.

I've worked with 3d modeling and vector design for 15 years, but I don't have much longer because I'm trashing my arm and wrist from scroll wheel zooming and panning. 3d connection has developed a mouse that is made to relieve this. The Cad mouse has a third button that replaces the resistance of the scroll wheel as a button for panning and has advanced zoom controls on the side buttons. In a addition, the space mouse 3d mouse could be used for pan and zoom with the left hand to relieve the right hand. Even though these job saving and health saving products have been on the market for years, Adobe still does not support 3dconnextion mice in illustrator. It's 2020, and each update to illustrator makes it more unstable ... Can we get some expanded mouse support at least?

Dear Adobe,
Thank you for your interest in increasing the functionality of Illustrator.
Requests for 3D Connexion Space Mouse:
Pan, Zoom, and Rotate of objects (and View Port if possible)would be fantastic. -

Pan, zoom, and ROTATE page! I draw with Illustrator and that would be huge to have this functionality.

Yes Yes Yes Please!! The mouse use in Illustrator has always put me off. It should at least be customisable, like most other creative software. Adding 3D Connexion functionality to just Zoom and Pan would really improve workflow, especially when working between CAD and Ai
