No pop-up menu in sketchup
I am using a space mouse pro with sketchup 8 and use the driver version 1.7.0.
Somehow i can't get the pop-up menu to work.
When i start sketchup it displays the pop-up about the pop-up menu but when i press the menu button on my space mouse it displays the preference pane.
I checked if i could configure it manually but in the list of available commands there is no option for the pop-up menu.
Now i can only work in object mode in sketchup, at this moment i am using the mouse in windows to work in camera mode.
To count out an user error, i installed the mouse on 3 different macs but still no option for the pop-up menu.
Does anyone know the answer ?

same problem-same fix: no popup option in sketchup 8 + 1.7.0
I too had no popup menu when I installed sketchup 8.0.11751 and the latest space nav drivers. More than that, the default button set with the 1.7.0 drivers is:
L: fit
R: 3D Connexion pref pane
That's strange as I'd think the ability to set movement style is pretty crucial.
Also with the 1.7.0 drivers there is no "Popup Menu" option in the Buttons dropdown on the pref pane.
Clicking "Use Defaults" returned the buttons to the above.
I was able to fix this by installing the 1.6.3 3d connexion drivers into sketchup 6 and copying the older plugin files
3DxSketchUp.bundle.plugin
3DxSketchUp.rb
from
/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 6/SketchUp/plugins/
to
/Library/Application Support/Google SketchUp 8/SketchUp/plugins/
The "Popup Menu: item is now available and the "Use Defaults" sets the buttons to:
L: Popup Menu
R: Fit
...which is of course what most want, at least on the little space navigator.

El menú emergente no aparece
Hoy al actualizar los últimos controladores ya no me apare el menú emergente en SkechtUp 8
Podrían ayudarme a solucionar este problema, es para mí de gran utilidad esta función.
Saludos!!

Hello 4lbertto -
One way to correct this is to uninstall Release 1.7.0 and install Release 1.6.3 to replace the pop-up menu in SketchUp. Release 1.6.3 is available from our download page if you check 'Also show archived software'
You can also contact technical support for help , however, the support in the North\ South America is in English. Once you choose the name of your country , a button says 'Go to form'. This opens a form that sends an email message to our support team.

Re: No pop-up menu in sketchup
I know this post is relatively old, but I was having this problem on my macbook pro as well and was able to fix it with the following steps in case anyone else encounters this problem...
1. Install latest drivers (3DXWare v 10.1.1)
2. Went to System Preferences 3DConnexion panel and clicked on "Restore Defaults"
Even though the latest drivers were installed it was mixing up the last drivers settings, so the restore default settings fixed everything.
