![]() ![]() Oh, your right about switching between views. I hate to admit but when this is returned I shall buy my own for OSX Rhino, it’s been a real eye opener for me. You can keep tweaking and saving till your happy with it.Ī very powerful tool, but not implemented in lots of applications yet, i.e 3D printing, but then its not a tool your average Open Source developer is likely to have. Once mastered its very quick to program from within the supplied utility and configurations saved. If you switch to Google earth or Safari, it automatically switches to that app with relevant macros and button assignments. The really cool part is it recognises what software you are running and configures itself to that. The LCD screen is a handy reminder for what functions you have programmed, it scrolls sideways to display multiple screens and can also be turned on/off if you find it distracting. I really do save hours using it on Rhino jobs. Once past the learning curve and having programmed macro’s and assigned the buttons, I’m not sure how I will work without it. I am lucky in that a friend loaned it me, at first I thought it was a bit fancy and not much use other than a viewing tool. This is one of those “can totally see the potential but have no idea how to realize it” types of things, which is a combination of my lack of experience with the product line itself and an unclear understanding of how it actually interfaces with Rhino.Įven though the drivers don’t completely mesh with the older SpacePilot I have, it’s pretty slick in Blender, but almost limited to manipulating the view only within Rhino, so I’m curious as to what other folks experiences have been. I’d love to be able to switch between Perspective / Top / Front in a single window.įor some reason, the 3DConnexion pref in Rhino is limited to 8 buttons, (which I don’t quite understand as the various units have 2, 12, and 31 buttons on them, none of which coincide to the 8 allowed by Rhino. While the buttons for the view changes work in Blender just fine, I’m having a fairly difficult time locating a specific command to map to them in Rhino in order to change the view in single (non paned) mode. I also can’t for the life of me figure out a way to call up the radial menus, let alone configure them. They imply it can be done, but I can’t find a way to pull that off. moving a selected object or group within Rhino. ![]() In usage on the one I have, I can’t find a way to toggle between moving the viewport vs. My understanding is that the LCD screen is only partially implemented for OS X on the SpacePilot Pro. What I’m curious about is whether or not you’ve got a current generation unit (SpaceMouse Pro or Space Pilot Pro) and what your opions are as to it’s a worthy upgrade, as these guys are pretty spendy. My understand after much googling is LogiTech has more or less intentionally removed the older products (the one I have) from the drivers as a means of attempting to get you to buy the new version (Space Pilot Pro). My wife was kind enough to find me a used Space Pilot (the previous generation), which “sorta” works in that the cap part does it’s thing, and some (but not all) of the buttons work. I’m looking for folks with experience with the 3D Connecxion mice, particularly on the OS X platform. ![]()
