I must try a space mouse one day - I have been successfully modelling without one for years - imagine how fast I will be with one of those.
If you don't see that there is nothing, then you are kidding yourself.

Tech support at Leica told me today that Spacemouse support is in their enhancement queue and they've started working on it. Good news.

Did they give you any time frame ?
I've used my Connexion Mouse to create flythroughs in 3Ds Max.. it is so simple !
It will be great if we will be able to do the same thing in Cyclone.
The existing animation tools in Cyclone are pretty ordinary.
Regards,
Mike.

No, no time frame given. Should have dug a little deeper, I suppose.

While you adding controllers to the Cyclone list, add my gold plated XBOX360 controller.

Hi Dennis,
Isn't leica "Jetstream" just re-badged Euclideon software ?
Therefore your XBOX 360 controller should work fine :)
Try it ...
Just out of curiosity... does a 3d Connexion Spacemouse work with Euclideon ?
Cheers,
Mike.

Mike

I do not think the Euclideon guys are up like you are. I tried the 3D Connexion Navigator that I have, but it did not work with Geoverse, although I have the 3D connexion driver and the box checked for 3d mouse.

I will try Cyclone with the XBOX360 controller in a few days when I have more time.

The guys at Euclideon say that the 3D Connexion driver will be put into their driver queue, but it does not work with the generic driver.
