Also added my vote.  The Space Navigators functionality combined with iclone would be awesome.

The space navigator has joystick outputs.
Maybe this software/hardware patch will do it?

Thanks for that link! I just added my vote...

This has been an ongoing request. Right now, there's no plans publicly stated about support for it. However, there is already an issue in the feedback tracker about developing it.

3DConnexion Support

My suggestion would be to go over to the issue in the feedback tracker and vote for it as a needed feature. I have discovered that the developers are in fact looking at issues in the tracker --I got a response the other day on my request for Morph sliders in iClone --which I've been told now that it's coming in iClone 7. My advice to you is to vote and get the word out to other people to vote on the issue if you want to get it on the development calendar.

Any plans to make iClone compatible with the Spacemouse? iClone is not listed as compatible software here: http://www.3dconnexion.com/supported-software/software0.html

Just a newbie question: can't you just program the 3Dmouse behaviour with the dedicated control panel to have it mimic the functions you need in iClone?
I mean somethin like MOVE TILT CLOCKWISE (on 3Dmouse) = ALT + MOUSE MOVE UP  to emulate zoom in iClone.

It's just a thought.. May it work?

I realize that other folks have other concerns. I'm not the one who's making the decisions, so I'm not really concerned with what gets implemented first as long as it gets implemented. I'm sure the team at Reallusion has a lot of stuff on their plate right now, and I'm certainly not making it any easier. But I also know that if you don't keep asking, then they're going to put it further down on the list. It's important for me, so I'm going to keep at it. If it never gets implemented then at least I will know that I've done everything within my power and it won't feel so bad. I've learned from my experience that if you let it drop and don't say anything you'll never get it. 

Squeaky wheel... 

absolutely,  I personally think it's a great idea - but having observed how long things have taken in the past,  it's not likely to be something high up on the todo list considering all the other things they have to do already. 

My first inclination would be to find possible work arounds that would make it work like a highly programmed mouse,  my 2nd thought is if RL puts out the sdk they mentioned a few months back.  My 3rd thought would be to contact Spacenavigator,  and see if they have a generic stand alone driver that would allow the user to program their unit.  It does seem odd that the spacenavigator 'needs' to be integrated to be functional,  I can appreciate it not being as fully functional as if it were directly integrated,  but I can not understand why it can't be manually adapted on a generic driver scale.   

another possible solution is using their new cad mouse..

Requesting what we'd like has little to do with how RL ultimately decide to organize their priorities.  Some things may be easier or harder to achieve and that may lend to how long it takes to implement. Some suggestions they may feel are more in line with how they want to develop their software and therefore have greater priority.  Things that may be important to others may be something I may not care at all about. I and others are simply making our wishes known, just like the 'majority', and no one should have any issues with that.

if this gets added before the, mixmoves upgrade, curve editor,  the indigo render being fixed and possibly some alternative render engine plug ins, the crashing bugs, the PBR, the requests for new content,  the neuron mocap system...
The majority of users will make you wish you never requested it to begin with :w00t:
