Hi there, I use Moi3d with a 15.6 Xp pen graphics tablet with screen. It works really well. But I personally always have a micro mouse sitting next to my tablet on the right, and external mini keyboard on the left. Running into a 36 inch flat screen tv.
For me the mouse is the most accurate and precise and fastest way of using Moi. Many tasks I will use my tablet. But certain functions the mouse is way faster and efficient.
Also there is so many different ways to set up all your hot keys and even the way the pen works. I was testing out the functions as I read your message.
On my tablet when you are using the quick animated selections at the bottom of the screen. If you just stay in that area going between zoom, pan, rotate. It works very well. But jumping back up to the main screen I need to trigger the right click that I have set to the pens button settings. I can actually right click my pen and hover it over the screen and rotate. But so much better just grabbing your mouse.
These graphics tablets are so amazing to use. And Moi3D is such a wonderful program.
P.s. Always have to mention this. Try out that porcelain lighting. You can find all those amazing lighting options and some really top notch tutorials. At Michael A. Maynard K4ICY. Find it in the Moi wiki under resources. In the tutorials click on any of the images. There is massive amounts of info. in there.
Moi is pure inspiration. Have fun.
Another last thought. I also have many paint and sculpting programs and in many of those programs the rotate works exactly like you were questioning. You can be on the sculpt then just move off the model into free space to rotate. Always peek at Pilou's repository. He has so many awesome programs listed in there. Its like a mini Bible of 3d modeling. Check out the Rebelle paint program. I found it in there. Absolutely amazing what it can do. You can make the paint run. he he.
So many thoughts in my brain... You have to try this sometime. Use your graphics tablet with Rocket 3f. then save as Obj. and load them into Moi3D. You can create some incredible creations. Rocket is a little tricky. But once you get it and with a pen tablet it works so well. Also try Wings 3d. And of course Blender. Then send em over to Moi. There is some really cool matcaps in Rocket. Peace out.

Hi Specktech,
Thanks for sharing that an XP pen tablet works with MoI and about your tablet + keyboard + mouse setup. I think I'm going to get a smaller keyboard to try that out.
