Spacemouse for notepad only zooms in eDrawings

Post by mpgreen »

Hi,

I've just bought a spacemouse for notebook. I installed the driver from the 3dconnexion site as detailed in the quickstart guide.

The spacemouse works fine in the 3dconnexion demo, onshape and edrawings. But doesn't work in Altium at all.

When I go into 3dconnecxion home => settings => advanced settings, the boxes are ticked.

Please help.

Mark.

Sorry the title on this post is wrong, should read "spacemouse works in edrawings but not altium".

Current driver doesn't work with Altium - download 10.3 (under archive) and it'll work. I had exactly the same problem but Altium eventually told me the latest driver is incompatible.

Hi tonyk,

apologies for the problems. The default configuration unintentionally got removed from the current driver. This will be fixed in the next release. Until then you will be fine with the 3DxWare 10.3.0 unless you have our newest model - the SpaceMouse Enterprise. We are tracking this issue with our internal bug number #7220.
