Multiple Space Mice

Post by aeblank »

Hi,

I have two space mice. A Space Explorer, and a Wireless. I use one at my desk, and one at home/meetings.

What is the best way to handle switching between them (or better yet having both work at the same time)?

Currently I restart the driver, select the alternate profile for my wireless, and then go.
Naturally, EVERY time I go to use the wireless, I have to re-program the buttons.
To switch back, I normally just restart my machine.

Please tell me there is a better way!!

Thanks,
Andy

Hello Andy -

With the wireless driver - 3DxWare 10.0.22 - you can have both devices connected at the same time and switch between them with the device selection drop-down at the top of 3Dconnexion Properties. You won't need to restart the driver - when you select the device the correct buttons are shown for it.

While the devices can be connected at the same time, only one at a time can provide the input to your applications.

Holy smokes thank you!
This is so much better!
I didn't realize I was so behind on my drivers. I think I was at v6. something.
