Assuming ZBrush doesn't have a single toggle mode function, I'd look for a way to create a function (macro?) in ZBrush. If not, then you could use the driver to do something but it is a bit of work. If they are different Modes in the app, they would each have a separate ButtonBank (you'd see all the...

It doesn't seem likely to be a hardware problem where a return would be useful. If you haven't upgraded in quite some time, your user files are probably too old for the latest driver to read them. Stop the driver, copy the contents of %appdata%\3dconnexion\3DxWare\Cfg off somewhere else, delete them...

Could you email me that old 3dxz file package? I'd like to see why it crashes the driver. If the files are more than one level old, it should simply reject them. There must be a case I didn't account for. I'm not planning on making structural changes that affect user files. I think we are good for a...

I'd like to see the dmp files from those crashes. You can run the diagnostics program (shift right click on the 3Dx systray icon) to collect everything I'd need. It writes a big zip file you can send me. The cfg file format changed (slightly) a few releases ago. It will to upgrade your user files--n...

Firebert85, Doesn't Blender use Raw Input? Then you are dealing with raw buttons from the device. They will be device-specific. You can find the raw device-specific button event information in the Base.xml file shipped in Program Files/...3DxWinCore/Cfg. If it used our API, then I'd suggest using ou...

Open the 3Dconnexion Properties GUI (3Dx systray icon right mouse click).
More->About. It lists your devices with the PIDs. It may need to be connected through USB to retrieve it.

It should be in the same place it usually is: <ProgramFiles>/3Dconnexion/3DxWare/3DxWinCore/Cfg/KeyboardWASDTemplate.xml.
The template import mechanism no longer exists. You have to manually copy the contents of that file to an application-specific cfg.

Antony, thanks very much for the break down. A few comments on the post: Antony is using an older version of the driver (17.5.5 IIRC). His files are specific to that version. There was a CfgFormatVersion change in the meantime. He is specifically solving the problem of getting the kb modifiers on hi...

Do you need to scroll down to the blue "Download 64-bit/32-bit Version" boxes?

If you run ZBrush with a driver (< 10.7.1) and save any user settings, you will need to delete your user file (probably %appdata%/3dconnexion/3dxware/cfg/ZBrush.xml) after installing 10.7.1.

Your saved settings will prevent the default ZBrush cfg from being used.

I understand. Then let's use HID. It works for the driver, it can work for you. There is no problem using HID, but you might have to do a little bit of work as new devices appear. We try to limit the differences. It makes our life easier too. All what follows is limited to Windows. 99% of everything...

You are using one of the Unity store solutions?
I think they only work in the editor.

The ZBrush solution requires a relatively recent driver.
Only the 10.7.1 driver package (released shortly) has the correct ZBrush cfg file. We highly recommend that you use that.
The SpaceNavigator (SpaceMouse Compact) is supported in that release.

Typo on your page: Logitech VID = 0x042d (legacy 3Dconnexion). (0x046d) I still don't understand the scope of your project. If you are working exclusively with the Windows driver, you can do much more configuration using the capabilities of the driver and the API. With a proper cfg, you have a lot o...

I see you are using TDxInput code. If you are starting with one of the projects from the Unity store, some have default joystick actions defined that always map some axes to actions that cause constant motion. I forget the details of it. It is a project setting that you need to remove.
