Spacemouse Enterprise not recognized #1

RawMouse seems to be loaded and is listed under Extensions, but Show Device Information is empty. Cura.log shows, that no HID device was found.

Please edit the config.json file and add this line into the list of devices:

[ "0x256f", "0xc633", "spacemouse", "3Dconnexion Space Mouse Enterprise" ],

JSON is very fussy about commas so if you put it at the end of the list you will need to add a comma to the preceding line and remove the comma at the end of this new line.

With this added, it should find the device.

Spacemouse Enterprise is active now, and Device Information shows up. I'd like to change directions for the knob response, but perhaps I can do it myself.

Thanks Walter

You can invert this by changing the sign for scale e.g. :

{ "offset": 0.0, "scale": -0.1, "threshold": 0.01, "target": "movx" } to { "offset": 0.0, "scale": 0.1, "threshold": 0.01, "target": "movx" }

That's right, thanks for the help @DivingDuck .

Meanwhile I've made some direction changes for the knob, similar to my settings in Inventor. See attached config.json. It seems to me, that pitch and roll rotations are centered to a pivot point at the top of the working box. Can this be set-up different, maybe to the origin point? Attached is a listing of available buttons for the SM Enterprise. In Inventor, I'm only using a few of them. It would be nice, to configure them, but I don't know their internal names.

Yes, the rotation is weird because it's still using the same rotation code as used for the 2D mouse with the addition of the roll axis. I have tinkered with the rotation but don't really have the time or motivation to radically change how it works.

It is certainly possible to add button functions but as I don't have any need for that I will not be putting time into that either.

Of course, pull requests are always welcome if you care to add some extra button functions I would certainly consider using that.
