3d Connexion Settings Broken

Anything to do with my 3d Connexion devices in V9 seems to be broken, I use a CAD mouse and the smallspace navigator. All is fine in V8 with the settings I’ve had for years, just updated to latest V9 release, same problems. Even the SpaceMouse command in V9 is ‘unknown’. System info below

SpaceMouse not working in WIP - Serengeti (Rhino WIP) - McNeel Forum

Did you miss this topic?

yeh must of done, V9 at the moment isn’t really usable for me, lets hope they fix this asap

Did you read the thread and not jus the title? There are two fixes:

In Options > Advanced and find the Rhino.Options.SpaceBall.UseLegacy and set it to True. That should restore 3DConnexion device functioning.

Control direction reversal of Space Mouse / SpaceMouse after updating V9 WIP may be due to the “mode” having changed. To switch mode go to SpaceMouse > Popup_Menu

yeh I missed that post, all good now. I’m sure the McNeelies will fix this out :blush:
