SpaceMouse Enterprise screen - Feature request

[jl1990]

Hi,

First I would like to thank all the contributors for this great software. I just received my SpaceMouse today and I started using spacenavd.

Currently I have two feature requests that would be nice to have:

1. I was wondering if it would be possible to use the screen to show the mappings for the numbers in the screen (same way as with 3dxware). I know there are similar projects like: https://github.com/TheHoodedFoot/SpaceLCD but they are for a different purpose.
2. Is there a plan to support multiple key configs for the SpaceMouse? It would be nice to be able to switch configs depending on the app that you are using. Even better could be to be able to switch the config by using some of the SpaceMouse buttons

Thanks

Both of these items are things I'd like to implement, yes.

Thanks for pointing out SpaceLCD which I can use as an example for how to use the display, it will save me a lot of trouble trying to figure it out.

The second item about custom per-app profiles is something I didn't want to do for a long time, because it runs contrary to the initial design philosophy I had for spacenavd, and there was no clean way to implement it either. But meanwhile I've been convinced otherwise, so in the latest protocol revision I added support for applications to identify themselves (optionally), to be able to eventually support something like that in the future. Since at the moment there's no incentive to do so, I doubt any applications choose to identify themselves. So initially, once I implement multiple profiles, it will probably be necessary to switch profiles manually, either with spnavcfg, or with a button bound to that function.
