SpaceMouse Pro button issues with NX6

Post by adunn »

I am using a SpaceMouse Pro with NX6, and not all of the buttons are functioning. I originally installed the driver that came with the mouse 3.15.2 and also tried updating to the newest version to no avail.
The mouse moves the model around just fine, and the alt/shift/esc/ctrl buttons work as they should. The fit button works, and the '1' button brings up the number pad. The view buttons do not work, and if I try to re-assign any of the functioning buttons to view commands, they also stop working. Pressing 'MENU' brings up the NX button mapping editor, but there are no buttons displayed on the right to drag commands to. I've attached a screenshot of this menu.

I tried adjusting my environment variables as was suggested in a few other threads, but that didn't seem to change anything. A co-worker has an older SpacePilot, and I got this to function correctly on my computer. This seems to point towards a compatibility issue between NX6 and the SpaceMouse Pro since it is a newer model...any ideas?

Hi adunn,

what did you do to "adjust your environment variables"? That you do not have any commands in the left column points to a problem with the environment variables.

Please start NX 6 then open a cmd window and start the command
  • set
one the command line. Post the output here. I am mainly interested in variables starting with UGII_
