Wired or wireless is another feature that might influence your choice. You might however what to consider resolution when your work required pixel-perfect precise movement of the mouse, like working with an assembly containing several joints and for sculpting tools. Resolution or sensitivity is another parameter that was highlighted by some users but for regular mice where some serious precision with mouse movement is not required, you can safely overlook this parameter. You can use these keys to set some frequent functions like changing views, accessing the most frequent commands like dimension and trim.ĭedicated keys for Pan, Zoom and other functions is an added advantage but too many dedicated keys generally become overkill unless you really like a programmable mouse with lots of dedicated keys. Software specific programmable key was another great feature recommended by our users. Rubber grip near the thumb and on the sides of the mouse which make it less slippery and comfortable to hold was also recommended by some users. Unsurprisingly, a large mouse with an ergonomic shape that fits properly in hand and is comfortable to work with is the most sought feature.

So, before we move into our list of ten best CAD mouse let’s see which mouse features were mentioned the most by our user group.

This article is primarily based on the experiences of CAD software users who have used these mice for months and years and then shared the feedback with us. To compile the list of best mice for AutoCAD and other CAD software like Solidworks and Fusion 360 I selected user preference as the main criteria.
