The development mailing list is where all the design decisions are discussed, so that's the best (and only AFAIK) place:

We found a few bugs in the 2.46 release concerning NDOF control, and we are trying to fix them. I don't know a release date at the moment: I'd say stay tuned on this forum, our website blender page, and also on graphicall.org for possible new builds of blender and the plugins.

So, Santa came early, and after months of debating if I could justify dumping $50 on a college budget, I have my spacenavigator! With a bit of reading, I was able to get it set up, configured perfectly, and have been very productive in blender ever since (definitely 20% or more as claimed!). That being said, I am slightly frustrated with my inability to re-map the buttons on the device. I would like to set them up to be button 1- fit (equiv. to Fn-.) and button 2- tab (to enter edit mode). To attempt this, I created a custom profile for blender, then I used the buttons tab, and selected fit for button one and a custom macro mapped to tab for button two. Well, I cranked up the blend-o-matic, and the buttons still retain their original function. Que pasa? Can they indeed be re-mapped, or am I whizzing in the wind here?
Specs:
MBP 2.0 Ghz 2 Mb Ram
OS X 10.4.11
Blender 2.47, most up-to-date device plug-in avail.
Thanks all! Happy Holidays.

Hey guys,
I see these are some old posts, and havent really read through them all. Does any of this apply to Blender 2.5?
I would love to use my SN with the latest version of Blender...
Help is much appreciated! |

Hey dvwood7,
I'm the developer responsible for adding SpaceNav support back to Blender 2.5+. Much of the event-handling system got an overhaul, so I was able to revamp the 3D mouse code. So to answer your question, the previous "hey, this is awesome" messages will still apply, the "plugin" posts will be obsolete, and the "not quite working" items will only apply if I don't do my job very well.
If all goes well, it will be available by September. Will post back here when it's ready!
