Hello,
I installed new Driver(10 series) and found the difference with older versions.
In new version 10.0, only "Up /Down" and "Zoom" axes are swapped when Zoom Direction "Up / Down" is selected.
In version 3.17, in addition, "Spin" and "Roll" are swapped too.
Please correct this problem.
OS : Windows 7 64bit
Software : Inventor 2012 / 2014
Driver : 3DxWare64_v10-0-22_r1746
Best regards.

Re: Problem with Changing Zoom Direction
Hello yamarah -
In 3DxSoftware the Spin and Roll axis directions are swapped when changing the Zoom direction. The default zoom direction is considered "Desktop Mode". This assumes the bottom of the device is on the desktop plane. "Screen Mode" assumes the device bottom is on your screen plane and swaps the Spin and Roll axis directions accordingly. The 3DxWare 10 driver zoom direction option changes only the zoom axis.
The axis behavior in the 3DxWare 10 driver is by design and is based on feedback about customer preferences. While the supported options are those available in the GUI, advanced users are free to edit their custom profiles as described this forum thread .

Hello Barbara,
Thank you for helping me.
Now my SpaceNavigator work fine as I thinking by following way...
1) Open
"C:/Users/<UserName>/AppData/Roaming/3Dconnexion/3DxWare/Cfg/Inventor.xml"
by text editor.
2) Change
<ActionID>HIDMultiAxis_Ry</ActionID>
to
<ActionID>HIDMultiAxis_Rz</ActionID>
3) Change
<ActionID>HIDMultiAxis_Rz</ActionID>
to
<ActionID>HIDMultiAxis_Ry</ActionID>
note : You cannot use replace command in your text editor because if do so first changing(Ry to Rz) will be replacing too.
4) Overwrite the xml file. No reboot is needed.
Thank you!!
