I've been using the wired version for about 4 or 5 years now, found that it is a great companion for Altium when demonstrating the fit of a custom PCB inside an enclosure. To be able to zoom, pan tilt and rotate in one smooth motion with the space mouse while setting the focus point with a regular mouse is a game changer.
I totally agree! eventho i turn the tilt option off for most of the work since i mostly do fixed angles (5, 10°) i still like having every camera function in one place and so direct
I had access to one of these a few years ago. It was soooo weird to use and I just couldn't get used to it. Much respect to those who can use it comfortably 💪
That is true! That is what 3Dconnexion wanted to see by sending me this mouse. How it would work with non engineering applications but 3D software in general. I have found my uses for it since its such a direct and intuitive connection to the camera. I personally like using it in substance painter. In C4D i like using it for camera movement, and tracking it, kindof like flying a drone in the 3d software.
Is it possible, for example, to click on transform options like position/rotation/scale and use the spacemouse to change the values instead of inputting the values with the number pad?
What would you use the SPACEMOUSE for?

Definitely takes many hours to get used to, super fast and efficient once you do tho. Love it, great video!
I agree!
excellent video and super informative!
thanks bro!
great vid dizzey!
These to my knowledge are common in engineering applications. Since I have only seen them in our engineering dept.

It's good for hovering in 5 i guess it's not a replacement for mouse
Thats very true, but i also think its not meant as a replacement, but as an addition :)
