Working on SpacePilot support, need help with rotation

I've uploaded snapshots from the inputdriver2 branch to files.openscad.org

Do I need to load the 3D connections driver? Yes/No/Don't matter?

The safe answer is No. For me, when just connecting the device, it
did fail to load a specific driver automatically so it installed
the generic HID driver.
I did not try what happens with the official driver installed.
ciao,
Torsten.
Well nothing happens.
Before I loaded any 3Dc software OpenSCAD 2015.06.20 both 32 & 64 bit do not
respond to the SpaceMouse (SM) Wireless. The SM was in Device Manager,
confirmed with the HID/VID/PID "USB\VID_256F&PID_C62F...", as the default
M/S HID Complient Device driver.
The SM works with the demo/test programs with 3Dconnexions (3Dc) drivers
loaded.
With the 3Dc driver started, OpenSCAD zooms in/out using the for/backward
tilt, presumably responding to scroll wheel emulation, when the 3Dc drivers
are stopped it does not respond to the SM.
To double check I later uninstalled the 3Dc HID driver in Device Manager, it
reinstalled as the Microsoft HID Complient Device. Still no response in
OpenSCAD.
The help/Library Info shows InputDrivers: HidApiInputDriver so it is the
right version, I presume.
Suggestions?

Interesting, I'm getting ID 256f:c62e on Linux. Maybe you just got the
brand new version?
I'll add this to the USB-ID list.
cioa,
Torsten.

See this FAQ.
http://www.3dconnexion.eu/nc/service/faq/show_faq/7ece50ed-0b39-b57e-d3b2-4afd9420604e.html?tx_sugarkbfaq_pi1[ddx_keyword]=HID
Perhaps you have your 'Wireless' plugged in?
It also suggests you will need a longer list...

Ahh, indeed, I have :-).
I'm uploading a new snapshot, which has both IDs included and should report
something like:
InputDrivers: HidApiInputDriver (256f:c62f - 3Dconnexion Space Mouse Wireless)*
It includes some initial support for mapping events via configuration,
but there is no GUI yet.
The default config should be added when running the new version the first
time. Right now it's basically the axis number with +/- defining the
direction:
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\OpenSCAD\OpenSCAD\InputDriver\axis]
"translateX"="+1"
"translateY"="-2"
"translateZ"="-3"
"rotateX"="+4"
"rotateY"="-5"
"rotateZ"="-6"
[HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\OpenSCAD\OpenSCAD\InputDriver\button]
"1"="viewActionResetView"
"2"="viewActionViewAll"
The names for the button actions are currently just the ones listed
in the UI description file, e.g.
https://github.com/openscad/openscad/blob/master/src/MainWindow.ui#L365
ciao,
Torsten.
Perhaps VID & PID fields in preferences??
Also "Logitech sold off 3DConnexion to an Italian investor in 2011.
All new models since then have the new Vendor ID." (spacenav)
http://sourceforge.net/p/spacenav/mailman/spacenav-devel/ Explains the
multiple VIDs.

Unfortunately it's even more complicated. We already have two
different data decoders as the devices talk different protocols.
Maybe we can just add a separate file to allow loading additional
driver configurations in case the new device speaks something
that is already known.
Ideally all that would go into spacenavd, but it seems the
Win32 port is pretty much dead for years.
ciao,
Torsten.
The new version works, thanks. InputDrivers: HidApiInputDriver (256f:c62f -
3Dconnexion Space Mouse Wireless)*
I'll get you feedback after I fiddle and try some setting adjustments.
The only comment at this stage is the continued rotation when the mouse is
released to neutral. It needs a opposite lock to get out of the slide.
Interesting is it stops when the window loses focus, and continues when it
gets focus.
