3DConnexion Spacemouse

Post by Rether »

Hello everyone,

I wanted to ask if anyone has experience with the Spacemouse in combination with Horizon. In itself, everything works very well with the help of USB redirection. Also the driver specific settings works also fine.

But this device has some keys ("Shift", "ESC", "CTRL") and these keys don't work during redirection, but when redirection is not active the "keyboard keys" are functional, but then the other functions stop working.

The mouse has in the DeviceManager two devices with the same DeviceID: One as USB\DeviceID and the other HID\DeviceID.

I defined the DeviceID as "Included" via GPO, both devices are then passed through.

I can't use the USB-Split function because there is only one interface shown in the HorizonLog.

So my question: is it possible to passthrough only the USB device forwarding and the HID device active on the client or is this the completely wrong approach?

More info:

VMware Horizon Server Environment:2012

Windows 10 + Horizon Client 8.2

On the client + host are the latest device drivers.

Thank you in advance!

You can try the alternate KMJMechanism as described in this post.
Look for <KMJMechanism>SendInput</KMJMechanism>.
