I'm using the SpaceMouse in a MDI application.
Now I get the events only in the first window.
I how can I get the events also in the other windows of my application.

Thanks for helping me in advance.

Hi crack1811,

Which API are you using?

If you are using the C/C++ SDK (not 3DxInput), you can register each MDI window (CView?) with the driver. That involves calling SiOpen with each MDI window handle. Or, you can modify your messagemap to route the events where ever you want inside your app. The events will be sent to whichever window is passed to SiOpen.

If you are using 3DxInput (TDxInput.dll), you may have to be concerned with which message pump is running.

Hi Jim,

I'm using the TDxInput.dll. I tried to create a device for each MDI Window
and connect the events if the focued changed.
But I get the events only on the first window.
Now made one static device wrapper with my own event handling.
In this case it's working fine.

Thanks for your Help.
