Re: Weak Linking Framework

Weak linking the 3DConnexion framework was a piece of cake... however the instructions for testing to see if the framework is present does not work. I'm running Leopard, and XCode 3.0. I have the following declaration at the top of my source file: extern OSErr InstallConnexionHandlers() __attribute...

It works fine with a blank document. But my entire folder of SketchUp docs that I've created over the past year cannot be used with the SN. It doesn't not work. I get the 1hz or slower jerky motion. When I use the mouse, no problem at all. Spin around and orbit like it's a pro workstation. I know i...

Wow! Thanks Lukep for all your support. This is really important for us and I'd like to thank you and the Blender Foundation for all the work done. Question on future features: how about the trackball mode? If I understand it correctly, it's like turntable but with full 6DOF ? Last but not least: li...

A few in-depth notes on the above post. - Regarding point 1 : the intent of the script is to detect NDOF devices only. This should include our devices and analog joysticks, but it should leave out keyboards, 2D mice, and other devices. To verify how devices are added, type $ ls -la /dev/input/event*...

I'll keep this post as short as possible and post more explanations later. 1. Download the ndof_input.sh script from here , copy...
