Re: macOS Big Sur - Beta Driver Available

Could you please provide a timeframe in which this error will be fixed. I use Onshape for my daily work and it's horrible to reset everything every couple of minutes! Or can I downgrade to another version that doesn't have this error? We can't yet estimate when the issue (MAC-323) will be resolved ...

Re: macOS Big Sur - Beta Driver Available

No warnings; System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> General always popped up unpopulated, so no "Allow" button. Tried several reboots, disabling LittleSnitch and checking which drivers were loaded using "ls -l /Library/DriverExtensions", but com.3dconnexion.dext.dext did...

Re: macOS Big Sur - Beta Driver Available

I just noticed this update, installed and ended up have exactly the same symptoms as garybart (M1 MBP, Big Sur 11.5.1, Space Navigator FW 3.17), but the last posted fix of manually closing the Helper and relaunching with the -install flag worked perfectly and the Allow button finally showed up. All ...

USB-C dongle for wireless Navigator

Barring the switch to Bluetooth (which would still be a far better solution), it would be nice to have a USB-C dongle available, even as an extra cost item, for the wireless navigator to accommodate the newest and all future laptops. Presumably, all laptops will make the switch to USB-C as the prima...

Re: OnShape and "modo 601" killing 3dconnexion driver?

Just crashed again and sent log. I also tested the command to restart the driver which didn't restore functionality to the currently open instance of Safari, but quitting/restarting Safari DID restore functionality, so at least I don't have to reboot the machine. Thanks for the workaround.

Re: OnShape and "modo 601" killing 3dconnexion driver?

I've sent the 7 crashlogs that were available from that folder via the e-mail as requested. As for the symptom, so far it seems to happen only after it’s been running for a while, possibly after a few sleep/wake cycles, I’m not certain, but I’ll monitor more closely. It’s actually quite infrequent a...

OnShape and "modo 601" killing 3dconnexion driver?

I've been using 3dconnexion with OnShape on a 12" Macbook running El Capitan 10.11.4 since the release of 3dConnexion driver 10.3.1. The App listed in the control panel is not OnShape or Safari (OnShape is a WebGL based CAD app running inside a browser) but instead something called "modo 6...

Re: Wireless SpaceNavigator :)

Just reviving this thread as I couldn't find a definitive answer on the possibility of a true Bluetooth version which doesn't require a USB dongle. I've migrated all CAD activities to a machine that no longer comes with full sized USB ports (Macbook) and thus have to carry around a dongle to use the...

Re: Support for Onshape

Just like to echo the request for a Mac driver in any browser; presumably Chrome and Firefox like Windows although Safari would be great too. One of OnShape's most promising benefits is the ability to do real high end CAD work on a Mac without running a Windows VM. For those SpaceNavigator junkies a...

Buttons aren't assignable in Siemens NX 8.5.2

I've just installed the latest driver (10.0.13), clicked the "Install Plug-ins" button and have the latest version of Siemens NX 8.5.2 running but I'm still unable to assign the buttons from their defaults. I've manually "Added" the application "XQuartz" which NX runs i...

Re: Siemens NX 8.5 and Space Navigator

Confirmed that it works in the order you posted, but also note that when I try to launch 3DxMagellanProxy before XQuartz, XQuartz launches simultaneously and NX still works fine, so it doesn't appear to matter what the order is, or at least I'm unable to test the "wrong" order.

Re: Siemens NX 8.5 and Space Navigator

Thanks for the update. I look forward to a fix and would be happy to "beta" test anything you conjure up.

Siemens NX 8.5 and Space Navigator

Siemens has recently released their latest version of NX with many enhancements I'd like to take advantage of, but I'm having a heck of a time getting the Space Navigator to be seen by it. For NX 8.0 and previous versions, a companion application called "3DxMagellanProxy" (available in the...
