Does STL Workbench have different mouse controls than OnShape?

OpenR2

Third mouse in OnShape is rotate....but first mouse in STL Workbench is rotate....ummmmm.
Isn't this an integrated app? And the controls are different?

Hi OpenR2,

Integrated Apps are, for the most part, not developed by the Onshape Development team. Instead, they are developed by Partners and developers separate from Onshape ourselves. As for your example, STL Workbench is developed by Geometric Americas Inc.

It is like getting an app from your favorite mobile phone app store; the developers who make the operating system for your phone do not make the apps you download. The user interface and controls are that of the app developer's choosing.

Thank's for understanding and let me know if there are any other questions.

Integrated apps starts with .... um .... I almost have it .... INTEGRATED. Lol. Not using the same navigation controls ... I mean come on guys ... isn't that integration 101?

Don't you agree?

@OpenR2 Sure but some might say they should have the same color, font, controls, buttons ...etc.. but it is really up to the partner, if they want their app to "feel" like Onshape to mimic our behaviors and looks.  We are working of making as much of this available to partners so they can make their integration as seamless as possible.  I would use the ? menu -> Feedback when in the STL Workbench tab and send them feedback about the mismatch in control there.
