Axes/Keys don't work - 3dxWare 10.8.4

Post by duree »

(For 3dConnexion devs)
I recently upgraded 3dxware to 10.8.4, and a few apps that I have configured with "keystrokes" in the "axes" panel no longer work.

Specifically, I think the problems are that the "dominant" and "threshold" settings aren't there any more?

My config is to take each entry in "Axes" and to assign a keystroke in "press and hold" mode. I need to set "dominant" mode so that the input can be precise. So, every twist and twiddle has its own keystroke.

There is a fix - I just uninstalled 10.8.4, and reinstalled 10.7.4, and - everything works again. Some recent (ish - 10.8+ maybe?) change has messed things up.

I realise this is (maybe) a niche config, but it means I can use the spacemouse (pro) for basically any app; I have a trackball on the right, spacemouse on the left, and "macro" a ton of things. Coding, office, email, design... everything. I really like the device and the ergonomics.
