This is going to sound somewhat funny

This is going to sound somewhat funny but I am very serious. I am left handed and use a wacom tablet in zbrush for everything. But I can also proficiently use my right hand for anything mouse related. It struck me today that it would be very efficient in zbrush to draw with my left hand with the tablet and then zoom, tumble the model with my right hand mouse or track ball. Basically I want to simulate that I am holding the model in my right hand and sculpting it with my left.

This is an interesting idea but I would think that this would only be feasible with some kind of dedicated system that would need the OS (as well as ZBrush) to be set up to handle input from the two devices at the same time. Perhaps something of the sort will happen if 3D monitors, or some other similar technology, becomes popular.

exactly marcus!

how about ZOS? (sorry to bother you)


chem!

Im in the same situation.
Left handed but using my right hand for everything mouse related.
Cinema 4d counterstrike etc.
I tried using my right hand to sculpt as it should be the same deal as i can
navigate through apps and games very precise.
Youd think so ! Found out my right hand has no soul :D
It be nice to have such a feature in zbrush even though i dont see it as a neccesarity.
3dconnexion navigators can navigate with the other hand but i dont know
if its limited to using either that or the mouse?
I know its not possible in zbrush tho.

They should make a ball that you hold on too with your hand and when you move the ball around it moves the model around. Like your holding it.
wooooooo

I'll imagine it tonight and make someone make it in reality.

I would only say you have 10-15% time advantage over other artists. People who are just right handed use tablet for everything.
But its pretty cool if i was able to do this.
