3D connection and a 3D menu

Gordon Rigg Feb 9, 2015 4:11 AM

There used to be some sort of 3D menu that I used with my 3D connection space navigator

There I cold select to rote/move one component of an assembly with the spacenavigator.

Since upgrading to 2014, I cannot seem to find that menu or how to bring it up - or how to achieve that manipulation of a single part in an assembly by any other means?

Can anyone point me in the right direction?

Looks like they've moved the menu out of SolidWorks and in to the main 3DC control panel.

With SW open, hit the Panel button on the mouse (or go to the System Tray icon, or go via Start > All Programs > 3Dconnexion > 3Dconnexion Properties), then Advanced Settings > Other Options. "Move Selected Objects" is the option I think you're looking for.

    That's showing Internet Explorer as the active program, how about with SolidWorks?

      You need to make changes to your settings with SolidWorks open. See this discussion: SpaceNavigator driver issue
