SpaceMouse control

[handyandyS3]

Is your feature request related to a problem?

I always use a 3DConnexion Space Mouse with my CAD software to design parts for printing. I then use it with PrusaSlicer to manipulate the model for zooming and viewing. I get so frustrated that Cura does not support this! PLEASE can you consider adding this brilliant functionality?

There's a plugin for that: https://github.com/smartavionics/RawMouse

Hi Aldo, Thanks for that. I have loaded that into the Cura plugins directory and it does work to move the model around. However, all the axes directions are reversed! So I'm a bit lost as to what to do to make it work correctly. Any help would be very much appreciated.

Hi Aldo, Thanks again. I've sorted it! I actually read the notes right to the end and found the bit about the 'Extensions' menu.

Hi @handyandyS3

This seems to be a duplicate of https://github.com/Ultimaker/Cura/issues/1152 so I'm closing this issue. I hope the plug-in from @smartavionics and the advice to RFTM helped you on your way.

Good luck and happy CADing + slicing!
