VIEW MODIFICATION:

THIS IS POWERFUL, BECAUSE YOU CAN TRANSLATE, ROTATE, AND ZOOM, IN ALMOST ALL VIEWS, WITHOUT USING STRANGE KEYS NOT FOUND ON LAPTOPS!

ONE YOU SEE THE DIFFERENCE BETWEEN ROTATION, TRANSLATION, AND ZOOM, AND SEE HOW MANY VIEWS THESE KEYS CAN BE APPLIED IN, YOU WILL START TO LIKE THE NEW KEY ASSIGNEMENTS!You can translate and rotate, all at the same time, while choosing from a wide variety of views, to get some pretty nice youtube videos out there.
