Does anyone know of a way to send signals as though they came from the 3D mouse? For example: a way to say "Yaw +30 degrees" without actually touching the mouse.
Thank you

Re: 3DConnection input signals
Which end-user software you are using? AutoCAD? Creo? Your own?
You would have to know which 3D API that software is using.

Re: 3DConnection input signals
Oh right, I didn't know that. I assumed that the 3DConnexion plug-in just monitored for pre-determined, propriety signals from the hardware, which is what I was hoping to issue via software.
I use Creo I'm not a programmer, but if it's not too involved to do this then I might be able to assign the task to one of our programmers at work (if I ask nicely)
Thanks

Re: 3DConnection input signals
What do you want to do? Assign Yaw +30 to a device button? Like the view buttons we have now that go to top/left/right/front/etc.?
Re: 3DConnection input signals
An example of this would suffice, yes. Thanks. A keyboard button, not a button on the mouse.jwick wrote:What do you want to do? Assign Yaw +30 to a device button?

*bump*
Does anyone have any idea on this? Ideally I want to re-create the signals that a 3DConnexion device might send but in software.
Thanks

Re: 3DConnection input signals
The only current way I know of doing this is maybe to write a plugin to your application. Depending on the application that may be easy or difficult.
Re: 3DConnection input signals
My application has a plugin. I want to utilise that plugin without using the 3DConnexion hardware. I want to control the existing plugin using a new piece of software that emulates the 3DConnexion. I'm not sure anyone has grasped what I'm saying yet.
What I'm after is a starting point.
