Hi wathavy 3DxSoftware v3.4.2 was tested with Windows 2000 and it works if the Service Pack 4 is installed. If Windows didn't recognise the device that could be another issue. Will the same device be recognised on a Windows XP machine with the same hardware as used for Windows 2000? Please check if ...

Hi zhouge If a device stops working in Catia please test if it works with one of the demos, I would suggest the "3DCube Demo", but you can use one of your choice. These demos are available under: Start -> All Programs -> 3Dconnexion -> 3Dconnexion 3DxWare -> Demos If the device don't work ...

Hallo FahreS,

bitte wende Dich an den chUmbaLum sOft, da 3Dconnexion stellt ein kostenlodes SDK zur verfügung, damit Programmierer die Unterstützung für 3D Mäuse in ihrer Anwendungen implementieren können.

Hi ttruman,

Just right-click to the bar containing the lowest icon list and click to 3DxInventor so it will remain checked: afterwards you should have the 3DxInventor plug-in displayed. Alternatively activate the toolbar by selecting "View" -> "Toolbar" and finally 3DxInventor.

Hi wathavy

As the support for 3D mice is an implementation embedded in the application by the editor of this software I would like to ask you to contact support for Alibre Design.

Please share experience and post the answer you get here.

Hi keesgeerts,

I could reproduce the issue you described. I used Inventor 11 to reproduce the case.

In this case I would like to ask to contact Autodesk as the support for navigation has been implemented by Autodesk. 3Dconnexion implemented only the plug-in.

Hi SimonD If you have to use SpaceBall 4000 the only choice you have is to try again with 3DxSoftware v2-8-2 as this is the last release which offers support for 3D mice under Windows. However I would advise you to buy a brand new device (SpaceNavigator PE only costs $59 - see the products available...

Hi Scoilt

Please consult the list of supported application on our web page. There are some application for which support will be implemented by the editors of these applications.

Please read this post as well.

Hi gladi8or Is the 3DxSoftware really installed at all? At first please check wether the device works on that PC starting one of the demos delivered with 3DxSoftware. These are available under: Start -> All Programs -> 3Dconnexion -> 3Dconnexion 3DxWare -> Demos Does the device work? Do you have a f...

Hi pepecrans I didn't want to suggest you to install the old version. Did you install the software from the CD at first an upgraded later? If so, please remove completely the 3DxSoftware and reinstall again the new release. The settings from the old, previously installed release could affect the beh...

Hi swieg

Do you get a 3Dconnexion splash screen while starting MDT?

Did you a custom or a complete installation (3DxSoftware, of course)?

I would try to activate the Update Wizard just to see if that helps. Please let me know what happens.

Hi pepecrans

Thank you for testing, this information could be very valuable...

Did you have eventually a previous release of 3DxSoftware installed?

Hi dragonvn Just start Explorer ( Windows Explorer and not Internet Explorer ) and type in in the address field %appdata% - Windows will convert this in a real, not any more symbolic path (which will be something similar with: " C:\Documents and Settings\<your>\Application Data\ ").

Hi William W. Kelley, With AutoCAD 2007 (and AutoCAD 2007 based programs such as Mechanical Desktop 2007 and similars) you should only install 3DxSoftware v3.4.2 as this software package already contains the plug-ins for AutoCAD 2007 and AutoCAD 2008. If you have an older version of AutoCAD, please ...
