3Dconnexion Forum

I'm sorry to disappoint such a long-time customer, and consistent forum contributor. We had a closer look at the Excel issues. Our built-in horizontal scroll is working well (once I fixed my cfg file). Does it not work for you? The two modifiers on a MouseWheel issue has always existed. It is bug # ...

What API are you using to do the periodic read? Sorry, I don't have a specific example of this. But as you dig deeper into your code, I may be able to help. Are you able to dig into the Resolume code, or are you using that as a library? You have many moving pieces. I suggest you remove one component...

Sorry. Two modifiers on same mouse event doesn't work with the built-in implementation.
It can only be done by the driver extension at this time.
I did notice that our horizontal scroll (custom code implementation) doesn't seem to work in Excel anymore.

How choppy is choppy? A dropped frame here and there? What method/API are you using to get the data from the SpaceMouse to the application? If the 2D mouse can manipulate the data smoothly, the 3D mouse can also. Often times the libraries have optimized 2D mouse data. You may need to implement that ...

I see comments on the DAZ forum that it has always(?) been too sensitive.
Did you perhaps have a custom cfg file before that scaled it down?
If you make too large of an update of the 3DxWare drivers, your old cfg file may be incompatible and it may be moved to a bak directory.

That SDK is for a completely different device. It is for an embedded controller we sell for industrial apps (robotics). It is not compatible with the commercial products (SpaceMouse Pro/Notebook).

Matt,

Could you PM (or post) the contents of one of those files?

<KMJMechanism>SendInput</KMJMechanism> should be the trick.
Please PM your %appdata%\3dconnexion\3Dxware\cfg\global.xml file to me.

What 3Dx devices do you have? You can do a lot using our device buttons. It's really only useful IMO if you have an LCD to show that the ButtonBanks are changing. Getting access to the kb modifiers is a TBD. I can email you some files to experiment with....realizing that you have real work to do, ot...

Hi Michael, I can always tell the state of the system keyboard modifier keys. It is currently possible to use a 3Dx device key to switch to an entirely different ButtonBank (all buttons at once). The GUI can't help, so it is impractical to use now. This appears to be a different concept. Where a sin...

I like that idea. I've heard it before.
Unfortunately, it can not be done at this time.
I'll keep it in mind and make a change request for it.

Other than the LED (and driver) always saying the battery is low, does it still work because it actually is charged? I have a device that does this.
Call tech support. There may be a firmware update for this.

jfox3ster,

How do you want this to work?
You want to use kb modifier keys to open different Radial Menus?
Or you want to use the modifier keys to extend the already open Radial Menu?

As luping pointed out, you can't do it today. But either one sounds like an interesting idea.

You can try this.
It works ok. Promising. But I'd question if anyone would want to use it all day.
A better solution would require the page to handle the 3d mouse events. There is no current way to do that.
