Space Navigator doesn´t work with SkectUp Pro 2022

Post by Volkhard »

While I used my trusted Space-Navigator without any trouble, it´s now not working with the new Sketchup Pro 2022 I just updated to. I still have Sketchup Pro 2021 on my System and here I hove no trouble using the Space Navigator. Any insights why this is happening?

Thanks for the help

SketchUp Pro 2022 was released on January 25 this year. The current 3Dconnexion windows driver 10.8.4 was released on 9th December last year. We are going to have to wait for a new 3Dconnexion windows driver to support SketchUp Pro 2022.

Version 10.8.4 already has support for SketchUp Pro 2022. The application beta pre-release build checked out fine with 10.8.4.

You may want to attempt a reinstallation of 10.8.4 now that SU 2022 is on your system.

Just to confirm, did you already have the driver of v. 10.8.4 installed but your SpaceMouse did not work in SketchUp 2022?

I'm trying to determined if you were using an older driver version or if a reinstall was necessary (it shouldn't be). Support for SketchUp 2022 was added in 10.8.4, so anything older won't work.

10.8.4 already installed. Just assumed SketchUp Pro 2022 would have to wait for new driver. Followed your instruction to reinstall (modify) 10.8.4 after installing SketchUp Pro 2022.
