Holding both buttons and moving controller issue

Post by Matteo_son »

Hello,

I have tried to find information on this.

I have a few SpaceMouse Compact and i have noticed that if i hold down both buttons and move the controller around and then let go of the controller the SpaceMouse will keep registering movements and thus spinning / rotating around the place.

When you hold both bottoms and move the controller are you entering some calibration mode with the hardware? or is this a bug? Just trying to figure out why this is happening

Thank you.

That's the first time I've heard of someone doing that accidentally.
Is it supposed to do something in your app? Like Shift+Ctrl+mouse movement?

Yes, that's a hardware calibration mode. Don't do it.
Use the driver's Calibrate function (3Dx systray icon) if required. Or now to fix it. Or just unplug/replug it.
