Problem Space Navigator (Keyboard Logitech) unter SolidWorks

Post by tr0907 »

Hallo, leider wird diese Hardware nicht mehr von 3Dconnexion supported. In der Teiberversion 3.1 funktioniert der Space Navigator unter Win XP SP2 in anderen Anwendungen einwandfrei. Nur unter Solidworks 2008 SP0 erhalte ich die Fehlermeldung: C:\Programme\....\mglsw20u.dll kann nicht geladen werden. Es fehlt entweder die Zusatzanwendung oder eine ihrer Komponten.

Hat jemand einen Tip!

Herzlichen Dank!

Thomas.

Hello, I'm, getting the same error;

C:\Pro\....\mglsw20u.dll cannot be loaded. Either the add in or one of its components is missing.

I have windows vista and solidworks 2008 sp0.

Serial SpaceBall fix for SolidWorks 2008

Post by JRICHTER »

In the SolidWorks.com customer portal knowledge base I found this solution. I tried it out to test it and modified the solutions referenced driver version from 3.3.2 to the 3.4.2 which is the only one available.

Also after installing the older driver 2.8.2, install the 3.4.2, but only the SolidWorks plug in. If you install more then that it will not work.

Q: I have a serial version Spaceball 4000/5000 /Spacemouse Magellan, and I cannot find a driver for your new software. Is there a way my 3Dconnexicon product can work in SolidWorks 2008?

A: Use the following workaround:
1. Load 3DxSoftware 2.8.2. , found in the Space Ball 4000 from 3Dconnexicon http://www.3dconnexion.com/support/driv ... v2-8-2.exe
2. Download 3DxSoftware 3.4.2. , found in the Space Ball 5000 USB http://www.3dconnexion.com/support/driv ... v3-4-2.exe
3. Use WinZIP to unzip 3dXSoftware 3.3.2 and install only the SolidWorks plug-in.

I have Solidworks 2008sp4 and a Spacemouse Plus Serial. I get the same message about the missing .dll

Can somebody provide me instructions regarding the fix for this.

Thank you in advance
