Trying the following code does not result in the intended effect. In the context of this post, what I would like is to be able to align the normal of the plane with the subsegment's right vector but keep the plane's up axis locked.įor instance, I do not want to the yaw component of the transform to change. There is a 3D model with a plane attached to the left upper arm subsegment(see hierarchy) whose initial normal is aligned with the global x-axis or the initial right vector of the subsegment. For the sake of clarifying my question I will provide some code and an example. Original transform to have the same rotation as the parent's but I want it to be locked on a certain certain axis. It is parented to a gameobject that is rotating in 3D space. Good Luck.I am currently attempting to lock a non rigid body transform rotation around on an axis. Otherwise I'd give the default zoom config another try. Too bad there doesn't seem to be much in the way of replies, or any action, on this forum. Not sure what would be causing yours to behave as described. This is all exactly like you described in your "ideal setup" description. Pushing the mouse away from me pans the model up, and rotating the mouse about the "front to back" axis causes the model to rotate about the y axis on screen. Lifting the mouse pulls the model towards me, twisting the mouse about the vertical axis rotates the view about the center of the screen. I went into the 3Dmouse Home - properties, and switched the zoom direction, and the roll axes behaved correctly. I can also switch back to just using a right mouse without any mental gymnastics, and still use the scroll wheel to zoom when I don't want to come "off normal" from a view.Ģ) If you really want to go with up-down to zoom, etc, it should work. Once you are used to this there is no conflict between left and right hands or any issues like that. The problem is with trying to emulate the behavior of the traditional mouse, which is on a horizontal x-y plane, and is less than ideal. Lift the mouse up, and the model goes up. Pull the mouse towards you, and the model moves towards you. It just makes sense with a vertical screen, and the mouse on a horizontal desk surface. Hi, I'm a happy spacenavigator for solidworks user.ġ) I use the mouse in the default configuration, and I find this to be far better and more intuitive than the other way. Is there a way I can reconfigure the axes / rotation settings properly? But I can't go down the road of using one if the axes are not set up properly. I've been thinking it might be nice to get the big one with all of the extra hotkeys, etc. I want to love this thing, buy one for my office, one to keep in my laptop bag, etc., but for now, I can’t even use it. Otherwise, I unfortunately have a device that I cannot use.
CETUS3D ROTATION LOCK AXIS SOFTWARE
(In my robotics-design life, I’d tell the software guy, “You accidentally swapped the Yaw and Roll joints – swap them please and I’d be happy as a clam").ģD Connexion: I hope there is an easy way to reconfigure the axes to work properly.
I will say the motion feels extremely elegant / smooth, etc. In his software, when he toggles the Zoom direction to be “Up/Down”, his axes are all re-oriented properly (which leads me to believe there is an error in the solidworks interface to the 3D mouse). NOTE: A very good friend of mine uses the cad program Alibre. I have attached several images depicting the situation below.
My excitement quickly fizzled when I realized toggling this setting provides yet an even more strange configuration which appears to be an error. I was temporarily overjoyed to see an option the change the zoom direction to “up down”. So, immediately, things are extremely awkward in Solidworks. Out of the box, the orientation of the spacemouse axes are in direct conflict with the orientation of the axes of the standard mouse. I would like to use my standard mouse in my right hand, and the spacemouse in my left hand. However, I have been pretty disappointed in the mapping of the axes of the mouse in relation to:ī) the axes / rotations relative to themselves when the Zoom direction of “Up/Down” is selected. I am very interested in incorporating the 3D Connexion wireless spacemouse into my daily life in Solidworks.
