RhinoWIP for Mac: Updated 3DConnexion library

In this week’s RhinoWIP for Mac, we have - yet again - updated the 3DConnexion integration. This time we hope :crossed_fingers: it’s easier to switch between the new integration and the legacy one (many of you requested that the older integration be kept around).

The new integration is not yet enabled by default. To enable it:

  1. Install the 3DConnexion drivers (if you haven’t already done so)

  2. Launch the latest RhinoWIP and navigate to Settings > Advanced and search for UseLegacy . Uncheck (disable) Rhino.Options.SpaceBall.UseLegacy.

  3. Restart the RhinoWIP.
    You can tell the new integration is active if the zoom target appears in the Rhino viewport.

With the newer version, all settings are now controlled from macOS’s System Settings > 3DConnexion (found at the bottom of the left-hand sidebar).

Please test this out and let us know where you see problems. There are a handful of known bugs we’ve already logged.
