Take a look at this thread.
<KMJMechanism> changes the way the keyboard keys/macros are sent, which generally works better with Virtual Desktops.

Which application? Which button? Which device?

Three65,

Which application(s) are you finding this with?

The CheckBoxes should rule. But then don't use the Zoom Direction RadioButtons--they are just shortcuts to setting the CheckBoxes and rearranging the axes (the first you can do in the GUI, not the latter).

Hello FarFlyer, It depends on the desired scope of your changes. E.g., if you want to change just one application, you can change your user file for that application. The easiest way to do that is to have our GUI write a user file for you, then you can edit that file with an editor (we all use notep...

What did the 3D mouse do in Plasticity? 3D things? Scroll only?

That was rather clever of you to use a negative Deadband. I see how it worked. It was not intended. But I like it. The reason it doesn't work anymore was because the implementation was moved, to fix something else. The new code performs more as per the definition. We are looking at this problem with...

All this is unsupported. It may change in the future. It works today. Now that I covered the disclaimers... The easiest way to do this is: 1) Start the driver 2) Click on the windows background. The driver will show "Desktop" on the LCD/GUI/OSD/systray icon. 3) Make a change for that cfg w...

ahmadtantawy,

You can do this, but not with the GUI. You need to edit XML files, if that is something you are comfortable with.
It can be somewhat application dependent.
I'd need some details. Which application(s)?

ok_grandpa,

It is possible to rearrange the axes [almost] any way you want. But you need to do it in the XML. The GUI can't help you.
I can help you with this if you provide more details about what you want.

Yes, it would be a big change, especially if you have already functioning code. I've sent a link to the "old SDK" from the api support email. It should not have changed much, even since 2005. It does contain support for multiple devices and hot plugging that the COM interface doesn't expos...

There may be samples of using the new SDK with COM in the SDK. It is a substantial change in how you think about accessing the 3D mouse. If you send an email to our apisupport windows email address (I don't want to put the email address here), someone will send you a link to the "old SDK"....

It looks like you are using an older COM API that is no longer in maintenance. It probably does work though. 50741d == c635h. You can find this ProductID in <3DxWinCore>/Cfg/Base.xml: <Device> <ID>ID_ProductID_C635</ID> <Name>SpaceMouse Compact</Name> <VendorID>256f</VendorID> <ProductID>c635</Produ...

You want to hold down a device button, like a shift/modifier key, to temporarily switch modes? Then go back to the original "main" mode by releasing it?

Recent driver distributions should have a "Navigation Modes" category available when you assign an action to a button.

If it is a new device talk to tech-support.
Talk to them anyway; they are friendly.
