Freewheel-Wheel Wheel toggles the display of the View Object Wheel in 3D or the 2D Navigation Wheel in 2D. The wheels are divided into sections referred to as wedges. Clicking in a wedge activates functionality identified for that wedge.

 

The 2D Navigation Wheel is a tracking menu that contains Pan and Zoom wedges with the same functionality provided by the Pan and Zoom tools on the toolbar. The 2D Navigation Wheel saves you time and clicks by combining these two tools in a single interface.
