3DConnexion support please


Recommended Posts

I've searched the forums and it seems its been brought up a few times in the past, but I would love to see more support for 3D Connexion devices.  I have a Surface Dial and I honestly think I'm going to sell it because it's just too laggy and slow when compared to things like the Space Navigator.  I think Microsoft made a big effort to save battery life on the Dial and it causes it to power down quickly.  The Space Navigator is USB powered, so it's always on.

All I'm looking for is pan, zoom and rotation - nothing else.  I don't want to resize brushes with a wheel - just navigate my canvas.

Any chance it could be added to Designer & Photo (Windows specifically)?

Came here to make the same request.

I'm an engineer and use my 3Dconnexion device all day long in CAD software like Altium Designer and SolidWorks. I feel crippled anytime I'm working in Adobe products, or now Designer/Photo/Publisher, and intuitively reach for my 3D mouse to pan/zoom and it doesn't work. These devices are huge productivity boosters, and supporting them would be yet another way to differentiate your offerings from Adobe's.

Please add this!

+1 You can be much more precise with these devices to rotate the canvas at just the angle you like without breaking a sweat. Having used a Spacemouse pro with Blender's Grease Pencil, I know this would be a huge improvement over regular canvas navigation.
