How can you pan the camera while creating objects like polylines in Virtual CRASH?

Panning is easy in Virtual CRASH. When an object is selected, you simply zoom out of the current view and zoom into the region of the scene you’d like to continue drawing in. This is done using your mouse scroll wheel. The video below illustrates how to pan. If you need to access the right side of your scene for example, hover your mouse over the left side and zoom out with the scroll wheel to reveal the right side of the scene, move your cursor to the right side of the scene you wish to focus on and zoom in with the scroll wheel.

While drawing polylines or other objects which tie up the mouse cursor, making left-click to pan functionality impossibly, VC6, VC5, and VCPS users can hold the ctrl key while moving the mouse to pan the camera and ctrl+shift to rotate the camera.
