Creo Parametric 11 and Newer – Custom Mapkeys Missing in 3Dconnexion Settings

[BabuSachem]

Hello!

After upgrading from Creo Parametric 10 to Creo Parametric 13, I followed the changes introduced in newer Creo versions, including separating the mapkeys from `config.pro` into the dedicated `mapkeys.pro` file.

Everything worked correctly in Creo 13, including all my custom mapkeys. However, I noticed that my mapkeys were no longer available in the 3Dconnexion settings for my SpaceMouse Enterprise, so I couldn't assign them to the controller buttons.

It turns out that 3DxWare still reads custom mapkeys from `config.pro` and does not seem to recognize the new `mapkeys.pro` file introduced with Creo 11.

I copied my mapkey definitions back into `config.pro` while keeping them in `mapkeys.pro` for Creo 13. After restarting Creo, my custom mapkeys appeared again in the 3Dconnexion settings and could be assigned to the SpaceMouse buttons.

The workaround works, but it would be great if 3Dconnexion updated its Creo integration to read mapkeys directly from `mapkeys.pro`, so we wouldn't need to maintain them in two separate files.

Hopefully, this helps someone facing the same issue!

My configuration:
Creo Parametric 13 (upgraded from Creo 10)
3DxWare 10.9.15.733
3DxWinCore 17.9.15.121
SpaceMouse Enterprise
