Maya and space traveller buttons not remembered

[seamus]

Hi, After assigning new shortcuts to the buttons on my Space Traveller and restarting Maya, the button list shows up blank and nothing has been saved.

Has anybody else had this happen and found a fix?

Thanks
Seamus

Map from the button mapping editor in the 3DConnexion Maya control panel. If you map from the standard control panel it gets overwritten by the addin.

Hi, thanks for the reply.

Unfortunately that is exactly where I have been assigning button functions. I then hit Save. But when I reopen Maya the button slots are all blank.

I've reinstalled the drivers twice with the same result

I forgot to list that I am using the latest drivers on Vista 64bit. I hope that this is'nt another bug that can be written down to OS

Did you set 3dxsrv.exe to run as administrator.
We have also just released an updated driver.
Changes were made in the plugins
Try the new driver and see if this helps.

Hi, thanks for the driver update tip. I have just updated and also set 3dxware to run as administrator. Unfortunately I get the same result as before.

I guess I can just run some hotkeys from the 3dx standard window. There seems to have been something strange gone wrong with my Maya plugin installation.

It may have to do with the fact I had to downgrade my Maya from 64 bit to 32, due to a Collada export conflict. Perhaps things got mixed up when I did the switch.

Hi seamus,

Removing all 3Dconnexion and then installing it again should have fixed that.
