Spacemouse Pro Wireless Buttons not assignable in Rhino 8

Post by Jeremysfx »

I have been trying to get my spacemouse pro wireless buttons to be acknowledged inside of Rhino 3D 8.1.4 but so far only one button shows when I press it and it is not the button I am pressing. If I press the menu button, button 1 lights up in Rhino's 3D connexion page. None of the other buttons light up in the Rhino setup page. I next went to my 3D connexion app in system preferences and fiddled with a few settings on buttons 1-4 (disabled, Application Command, etc.) but nothing changes. None of the 3D Connexion buttons show up for assignment inside of Rhino. The one thing I notice is that when I click the menu button my left hand menu in Rhino flickers, but ONLY this button. Incidentally this is the only button which triggers anything from within the Rhino 3D connexion setup page. Another issue is that Rhino only shows 8 assignable buttons, but shouldn't they all technically be assignable? I must be missing something here but I can not for the life of my figure out what that is.
Anyone else having this issue? Anyone else successfully customize their spacemouse buttons inside of Rhino?
Thanks,

Have you tried switching the profile in 3Dconnexion to "Rhino" and then restarting the software?
