Extract from the latest E3D2.1 Fix6 Release Letter:
SpaceMouse Support
This release introduces support for a 3D SpaceMouse(3Dconnexion) to enable navigation in the 3D View of the Model and Draw modules (the mouse may only be used for navigation purposes).
Hi, I have been trying too use a Spacepilot fom 3Dconnexion in E3d 2.1.0.6 and i have som issues, it don´t stop moving around it just keep rotating or zoom. Does anyone else have these problems, and if you have solved them pleace share.
I am trying to use an older SpaceExplorer (USB id 046D/C627) with E3D, but I also experience the continuous rotation and zooming. Which is actually not infinite: I can slow it down with the SpaceExplorer. Actually all 6 axes work, but they work in a strange way: they just add or substract to an inertia (linear or rotational speed) instead of always resetting to zero. When the space mouse is idle, it just doesn't add anything to e.g. the rotation speed, instead of setting the whole speed to zero, as would be desired.
However I experience the same behaviour without even installing the 3DxWare driver, by using only the stock Windows HID input device driver. I cannot either change any settings by using the 3DxWare's xml files. Based on this, my assumption is that Aveva E3D fails to connect to the installed 3DxWare drivers, that sit on top of the standard USB HID driver, rather it just connects to the not-properly-working base Windows driver.
