When designing in Tinkercad the mouse buttons provide the following functionalities.
*Note, Tinkercad is set up to work best with an external mouse instead of a laptop trackpad.
- Left button: selects tools and a single object on the grid by clicking; selects multiple objects on the grid by clicking and dragging a rectangle around the objects you wish to select.
- Center wheel hold: pans around objects by holding the mouse wheel and dragging the mouse side to side.
- Center wheel spin: zooms the workspace view in and out.
- Right button: orbits around in space by holding the button and dragging.
