Magic 3D

My magic 3d seems to have broken somewhat.

I can create a stage and get all the lights on it, and they all work dandily with freestyler - what I cannot do is move the camera at all. So basically I am stuck with a view from underneath my stage, which isn't very helpful.

Has anyone got any ideas as to why this is/how to fix it? It's really starting to annoy me!

Bog standard mouse..

Does the same when I use the touchpad on my slaptop too..

I've rebooted and its given it a bit of life, but I can only rotate in "big leaps" (if you get what I mean) and not preciesly like I used to..

ideally you need a scrolling 3 button mouse as using the roller zooms in and out - these mouses are cheap to buy! and usefull for so many things i'd never go back to a normal mouse! you may have moved it somewhat using the right hand side 'slider' of your touchpad on most synapytics laptop touchpads running you finger along the right hand side of the keypad acts like the scroll of a mouse thus being able to zoom in and out if you didnt know of this feature you may have scrolled in unintentionaly and thats why it seems there's something wrong (if you do then i know people who would of done this)
