Please support 3d Connexion 3dMouse - https://3dconnexion.com/uk/
It would be a massive help for anyone using a SpaceMouse. Thanks in advance

I have a 3D mouse and I’m a bit disappointed that it doesn’t work on PC. I hope there will be support someday.

Upvoting this feature request as it would be awesome to navigate/orbit using a 3d space mouse

I made an account specifically to +1 this.
With SpaceMouse support, Nomad Desktop is an instant buy. Without it, I simply can’t use it. I downloaded the beta, and it feels like having a missing limb, it’s that integrated into my muscle memory. I want to look at a different angle, nothing happens, I try harder, and then I realize that the gestures I made with the SpaceMouse aren’t registering.
MacOS, for the record. Big fan of your software! For me personally, this is the make-or-break feature.

Did you try to rebind them in binding menu?
Maybe enabling “joystick” in advanced menu.
And in binding list in the “view” subsection, the relevant part of the bindings pan/up/down/left/right

Thanks Stephomi. I have some viewport movement. I just need to fine tune the settings. I’ll post my settings if I get it to work properly.

Can’t find that joystick menu, sorry for the stupid question, where is it?
Were you able to get your device working properly? if so, what settings did you use?
It does feel weird to navigate the viewport with a regular mouse after using the tablet version.
Hi, sorry for the delay in responding. Annoyingly I’ve not had a chance to set it up. I won’t have time until mid next week. Hopefully I can add my settings then if it works well.

Thank you. I do register “some” movement with the space mouse, but nothing usable. We’re you able to get it running properly? Have a good day.
No worries, I’ll give it a shot and let you know how it went. As of now, the device is still unusable.
Yes, Nomand needs official SpaceMouse support.
The hole Joystick doesn’t work well.

I have nomad sculpt on the iPad, love it. In my work life I use the 3dconnexion space mouse because it increases productivity so much that it’s almost a requirement. I just saw that I could download nomad sculpt on the Mac so I purchased it again because I knew it would be SO MUCH better to use a space mouse on my computer while sculpting. I am disappointed that this does not work after spending the money to buy the program again. the space mouse works for every 3d program on my Mac except this, no joystick option works, no remapping works nothing.
TLDR:
Please make this work.

I just created a new account to say this too. Not only is the Spacemouse completely unusable on Nomad, I can’t even use Nomad without unplugging the Spacemouse from the pc. Until this is fixed, it can’t be a viable option for replacing ZBrush for me, which is a shame as I really don’t want to support Maxon and I love Nomad on IPad.

I can also vouch for this. For pc specifically, this would be helpful.

so interesting findings for me
I have a Spacemouse Enterprise. When I plug it in, the object flickers and the graphics get messed up. Unplug it, everything is fine. I can zoom with the spacemouse, but nothing else. Joystick enabled or not doesn’t make a difference.
I also have a spacemouse wireless. I would plug that in…no flickering. But also no zooming. Then I re-paired it to my usb receiver, and now it zooms….and the Enterprise stopped flickering.
I don’t know what’s going on, but things are weird and not consistent.
I also wasn’t able to use Nomad at first because buttons weren’t working. Then they just were.
Hello. I would like to join the request to add SpaceMouse support.
Nomad Sculpt is a wonderful app; however, due to medical issues with my left hand, it is difficult for me to use it without assistance. With a SpaceMouse, I can work without pain, and it helps me tremendously.
I truly hope you will be able to add SpaceMouse support in the future. Thank you! 
For now no plan on integrating the sdk but for next release I’ll fix a bug with joystick, I broke something a few weeks ago and it impacts 3ds space mouse bindings (full speed on any axis which obviously make it unusable/broken).
In theory it could work in some case (you might need to tweak the bindings).
