Inventor 2012 spacemouse hangs clicking constraint

Post by Geveke »

Hi,

We have 3 brand new Dell Precision Workstations since this week; all 3 machines are configured identically, same software, same drivers etc.
On 1 machine the spacenavigator hangs in Inventor 2012 when clicking either "constraints"or "Assemble"; rotating and zooming with the spacenavigator doesn't work then.
Already "calibrated" the Spacenavigator, unplugged USB connector, but no effort.

Anyone a solution?

System running Windows 7 Prof x64, 3Dconnexion driver latest from Internet.

Thanks.
Fred

We have reproduced the Issue with Inventor in our Lab. The bug number for this issue is 6633. There are two ways to work around this issue.
One is, to click again in the graphical window - this will re-enable the navigation.
The other is to switch to 3DxSoftware driver 3.17.8 .

I believe it will be fixed in the next driver release.
***I do not have a date on when this will be released.***

I see the fix was recently verified in 3DxWare 10.1. Release date? I don't know.
