Question

Edit Drawings

I am using Creo Parametric - Release 4.0 (connected) Release 4.0 and DatecodeM040

I have a problem when creating/ editing drawings in Creo 4.0. The problem is, when in drawing mode the right mouse click suddenly just appear for a millisecond and then disappears. In order to solve this problem I need to close down and restart Creo. This problem occurs 3-4 times a day when creating/ editing drawings and is completely sporadic. This problem ONLY occurs when in drawing mode and NOT during modeling. Acc. To PTC community/ colleagues, the problem is related to the 3D Connexion space mouse software (or something related to the 3D connexion). Is there any way to get rid of/solve this problem?

Disable 3DXware application on your machine and test to see if that is the cause. Here is an example of the processes that will run under the 3DXWare when active. If it is the cause then try updating the 3DXWare to the latest release. and retest.

    Your mouse pointer blinks randomly with drawings. Which is a inconvenient behavior. 

    By elimination, to clear off the 3D Connexion hypothesis, you can cancel the start of the driver by renaming the .dat file.

    The .dat file can be located in those folders:

    Once the hypothesis is confirmed then update the driver or simply refrain from using the device.
