Other applications keep getting spacemouse events

Post by secondwish »

Hello there,

probably the reason is simple, but I am having a native USB driver Integration of the Space mouse devices into a 3d application. So far so well. When my application looses the focus, it wont process spacemouse events, which is the behavior everybody is expecting.

For all other (CAD-) applications, the behavior is very different: once they loose the focus, they seem to keep getting space mouse events. The result is while navigating through the model in my application, the view in the other application gets totally lost because it is still reacting to space mouse events.

How can I solve this issue? Can I tell the spacemouse device to not notify other applications? Am I using the wrong approach? The USB driver ist very stable, no driver installation needed it works immediately when plugged in - so I would like too keep it.

Cheerse Georg.

Use 3DxWare 10. The switching is more predictable, if you create a profile for your application.
