We recently did a change to our application (which is a dll loaded by another app), so it can be loaded and unloaded during the runtime of the host process. Our dll creates a hwnd which receives events from the spacemouse driver, however, after unloading and reloading our dll, it stops working. We h...

Thank you very much for the follow up.

So do you think this is something we could fix in our code?

Hi jwick, I've sent you a PM.

Exactly.

Our hWnd is not parented.

Since your extension is doing all the rendering -- and as you pointed out, then your extension will need to handle the view changes. Can you get the underlying SketchUp view changes and propagate them to your window? Say, the user switches to a standard view ("top" or "left"), h...

I need to post a correction: We do NOT initiate our RenderWindow with the HostApp's (be it SketchUp or Revit) hWnd, so we are not the HostApp's Child Window. We are however, part of the same process. (Our Plugin.dll gets loaded by the HostApp). While working, the client will often switch between the...

We need to, because we have a custom viewport. For more infor, see our homepage: http://www.enscape3d.com So are you saying that there is a proprietaty extension in the 3DConnexion's driver? In Revit, our Renderwindow is a child to the host application as well, and there, we do not experience the pr...

Currently we're developing a Render-Plugin for SketchUp. In our code, we basically use this code to set up the Spacemouse device: SiInitialize(); SiOpenData oData; SiOpenWinInit(&oData, m_hwnd); SiSetUiMode(SI_ALL_HANDLES, SI_UI_NO_CONTROLS); m_siHdlDevice = SiOpen("OurApp", SI_ANY_DEV...

What I tried so far:
But this always returns 1.0 regardless of config.
How can I access this config programmatically?

Jwick, thank you so far. Creating a config file to ensure the correct scaling poses problems for us, e. g.: - We are a plugin for another app that also uses the SpaceMouse, so we cannot simply overwrite that file's cfg. I'm using the 3DxWare SDK doc and didn't find this information there. - Can you ...

I reduces the problem as follows: - compile the 3DxTest App -> 3DxTest.exe - Copy the executable giving it another name, like ->3DxTest2.exe Those two will behave differently in terms of: - 3DxTest.exe: - "APPLICATION USE" will be displayed in the SpaceMouse display when pushing buttons - ...

edit:
In all cases.

I have a c++ application the can be run either as plugin for another app, or as standalone. I find that axes values I receive by SiGetEvent Vary greatly. When I run the example program 3DxTest, I receive maximum values around 500-600. When I run as a plugin (for an application that uses the SpaceMou...
