Application-specific Space Mouse customisation - which co's Devs do it?
Basically, where do I request Support, report bugs, make Feature Requests? Or who to blame for the often clueless, poorly calibrated implimentation, and the failure to respond for years on end, to users' frustrations on forums etc?
The user experience within applications is always in my experience, massively disappointing and frustrating, compared with the idealised smoothness of 3Dconnexion marketing and training videos https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=P ... 7AD4F7BA13 and 3Dconnexion>home>Trainer. Is there a basic set of ideal functionality that can work in any Windows application - until each application's developers over-ride that and mess it up? Or not as simple as that!

This issue is bugging me again - anyone got anything?

I have both the two button spacemouse wireless (and an older wired space navigator as a spare) and the spacemouse enterprise and when it comes to the control knob there is no appreciable difference in navigation within the same program.
The extra buttons of the enterprise version are to replicate keyboard keys (like tab, esc, del, enter, ctrl etc) and some spacemouse function keys to preset views, lock rotation, zoom etc. and in the case of the enterprise version 12 command buttons at the top for issue BricsCAD commands like line, circle, sweep etc. or whatever you assign to them so that you don't have to take your hand off the spacemouse a lot to use the keyboard when simultaneously using the cad mouse.
I remember from Vectorworks that it is a kind bit of cooperation between the CAD developer and the 3D connexion people to have a standard/default set of tools/behaviours for the 3D mouse. Any further optimisation settings have to be communicated by e.g. BricsCAD.
This may be different for Twinmotion than for BricsCAD because of different use cases/workflows which could explain the difference in behaviour. In that case you will have to reassign the functions to the behaviours and buttons yourself where possible.
