Short : the press and release action have to be done in the "delay" for the bind act.

Long : The press time have to be more than "delay" ...

Resuming Windows from stanby doesnt reactivate the SN. Have to unplug and replug it...

Workaround is stopping the device of course, but I think this could be improved ;)
?

is the device active in the device manager when resuming ?

should be done when all other problem are solved :)

Ok one little thing I dont understand.
A button with a repeat key of x ms...
If I press the axes-button an hold it the key repeats in the ms intervals. But if I release the button and press it again it doesnt works until the repeat interval time is over.

Is that ok?

Ok
Vertical Axe

Key Press
Repeat 2000
Key "7"

Move down the Axe prints "7"
Release and immidiately repress does nothing
Wait the 2 seconds and press prints "7" again

No, same result. Only unplugging the usb cable solves the problem. Tested on 3 different pcs. All running XP Pro

I realize...
I think the thread with the repeating buttons was only a missing timer reset when releasing the axe-button?!

Hi RBC9,

Thanks very much for producing this driver, it is excellent. I'm able to use SpaceNavigator with Amapi now. I do have a question about setting it up though.

Amapi is a 3d design tool. It uses the cursor keys for rotating the model.

When you combine the cursor keys with <CTRL>, you're then able to pan.

I can manage both rotate & zoom, I don't know how to configure 'Pan' - How would you do this?

Cheers,
