I just got a 3dconnextion SpaceNav mouse (or whatever it is supposed to be callled) for use with ProE. But I think it may be causing some system problems.
First off, it seems to employ some method of rapid screen refreshing. This is causing a problem because when I am trying to select features in my model, the screen is redrawing almost instantly and I cannot tell what I am highlighting. This makes things like right-clicking through surfaces next to impossible.
I also appears to be causing a larger problem in the program. On more than one occasion, ProE has locked up as though it is busy. It's even done so while I have nothing open at the time. Upon further observatin, this appreas to be happening only in the drawing mode. As an added bonus, I can use the new mouse in drawing mode (when it isn't frozen), but my regular mouse doesnt work so I cannot select anything. For the time being, I am simply shutting it down when I enter drawing mode.
I'm loving this 3d mouse business, but the issues I am having with it are enough for me to stop using it if I cannot resolve them. Anyone knows what is happening, let me know.
Thanks
