Hi AButler,

You will need to add the new "ButtonAction" (of type "MotionMacro") to the AutoCAD.xml file in the driver installation directory.

The macro that you posted has the necessary key codes that you will need to use.

Hi kchase56,

Any update on these issues?

I was expecting you to have been contacted last week. I'm asking where they are with that. I'm sorry for the delay.

Hi AButler, If you do not mind getting yourself in to editing driver profiles, you can try the following: Stop the driver and AutoCAD. Open the AutoCAD.xml file ("Cfg" directory of the driver installation folder) in a text editor. Add a new button action of type "MotionMacro" imm...

Hi valvarez, I think the only approach that you can take to ensure a reasonable level of stability is to create your own native libraries linked to the 3DxWare 10 libs. You can then use your own libraries to load in your application. In other words, you should create wrapper libs (using Visual Studi...

buttons are still executing radial menus, acting as an "Escape", etc. This is what I want to prevent. So do I understand correctly that I am required to have a configuration file for my daemon application where the buttons are set to be owned by that application only? Launch your applicat...

This is a concern. It also needs to be looked at.

Hi codenotes, Have a look at the SiGrabDevice() driver API. It should allow you to manage the driver "focus" from your application. You may still need to make changes to the driver profile for your application (to ensure the buttons work as you'd expect). We can assist with that, if necess...

Hi kchase56, Removing the SolidWorks 3dconnexion add-in from 3DxWare version 10.2.3 allows Mastercam for SolidWorks Verify to function somewhat correctly, but the movement is very choppy. Did you also make the change to the protocol element in the SolidWorks.xml driver profile (found in the driver i...

Hi tschmidt,

We just got the installation log. Thank you for providing the data.

Did you previously have installed version 3.15.2 of 3DxSoftware, the older software suite for 3Dconnexion products? If so, how did you removed that software?

I followed your instructions, but that did not help. In addition to displaying the error 1001 message, when the rollback operations are done, the setup states that it was interrupted and should be executed again. Sorry about that. Would it be possible for you to send the installation log files to o...

One solution is to change the driver profile to use S80 and disable (or uninstall) the 3Dconnexion add-in, which listed as "3Dcontrol" in the add-in manager panel of SolidWorks. I tried this suggestion and it still didn't work. Removing (uninstalling) the add-in turns SolidWorks to a 3D m...

Duplicate topic. See answer here.

Hi kchase56, In the case of SolidWorks, the transport protocol is defined in the corresponding driver profile file, SolidWorks.xml. If you are developing a SolidWorks add-in that also requires a connection to a 3D mouse driver, then it will conflict with 3Dconnexion's. One solution is to change the ...

hi Zoony,

I believe your software will need to pass an internal check list. I do not know if this information is published anywhere.

Best send a question directly to the tech support team.

Hi tschmidt, I have encountered the same error (Error 1001) during the Installation of the current release (Version 10.2.3 of March 4th, 2015). Please contact me, I have already prepared an installer log file. In all likelyhood, not all the necessary .Net frameworks are installed on your system. If ...
