3D spacemouse Zoom problems

I made a post yesterday in a old thread and got the (good) advice to make a new posting so here it is 🙂

 

Some years back I bought a 3D spacemouse from Connexion, the 'compact' model and I was at the time using Fusion 360 on a Windows machine. I had some troubles with (mostly) zooming but at first I thought that I had bought something that "nobody uses" and blamed myself while hoping for a better driver or compatibility with Fusion 360. Neither ever happened.

 

Since almost two years I'm using Fusion 360 on an iMac (macOS) with a Spacemouse enterprise model, and I'm having the same problem, and to some extent still hoping for a better driver or compatibility.

 

Look at my screenshots, the first just shows the model, 219x119.9mm with 0.3mm extruded text and border, the second shows where the zoom ends. No matter how long I keep holding that spacemouse knob pulled it does not zoom any closer. In this particular model I can continue zooming with my regular mouse but this is not always the case.

 

Some models I can zoom how ever much I want and no problems at all. Sometimes it gets worse as I keep building the model and/or while using the program.

 

Is this a known issue?

Am I doing something wrong?

Is there a solution?

 

I would love to get some feedback and tips on this. Even though I have used Fusion for years I'm not very familiar with the "high tech" talk so please consider me a noob.

Still hoping for some help 🙏

 

Today I reinstalled Fusion 360, reinstalled driver from connexion and even tried my old space mouse but none of it made any difference at all.

Sorry for being a pain!

Just installed Fusion 360 and my compact connexion spacemouse on a Windows computer that never had either installed previously. I made no adjustments of any sort in the software.

Opened my last design and it was even worse.

 

Is there some way I can share my settings/workspace/any other thing to someone who is willing to help?
