Ok, i guess this will be the start of my SpaceNav driver guide.. Attached are two config.xml files. One is the one I am currently using, which was really just a test to get the app to do different things based on where i was in the roadrunner skin. The second is one that will just act as a medai controller all the time.

Now, In the config i use that supports context switching you will see this code, in which it defines the two contexts i use, media controlling and mouse simulting:

Code:

  <deviceContexts>
    <deviceContext name="Media" device="SpaceNavigator">
      <axe threshold="200" type="binary" posAction="" negAction=""/> <!-- axe 0 pan left/right -->
      <axe threshold="200" type="binary" posAction="" negAction=""/> <!-- axe 1 pan foreward/back -->
      <axe threshold="500" type="binary" posAction="RR Play/Pause" negAction=""/> <!-- axe 2 push/pull -->
      <axe threshold="200" type="binary" posAction="" negAction=""/> <!-- axe 3 tilt foreward/back -->      
      <axe threshold="200" type="binary" posAction="RR Prev" negAction="RR Next"/> <!-- axe 4 tilt left/right -->
	  <axe threshold="100" 
        type="exponential"
        startPulse="1"
        endPulse="20"
        posAction="RR Volume Up"
        negAction="RR Volume Down" /> <!-- axe 5 Twist -->
	  <buttons>
        <button downAction="RR Mute"
          upAction="" />
        <button downAction="RR FullVisu"
          upAction="" />
      </buttons>
	</deviceContext>
	<deviceContext name="Mouse" device="SpaceNavigator">
      <axe threshold="200" type="binary" posAction="" negAction=""/> <!-- axe 0 pan left/right -->
      <axe threshold="200" type="binary" posAction="" negAction=""/> <!-- axe 1 pan foreward/back -->
      <axe threshold="500" type="binary" posAction="" negAction=""/> <!-- axe 2 push/pull -->
	  <axe simulateMouseMove="y"
        threshold="50"
        divisor="30" />
	  <axe simulateMouseMove="x"
        threshold="50"
        divisor="30" />
	  <axe threshold="200" type="binary" posAction="" negAction=""/> <!-- axe 5 twist -->
	  <buttons>
		<button simulateMouseButton="left" />
		<button simulateMouseButton="right" />
	  </buttons>
	</deviceContext>
  </deviceContexts>

The DeviceContextName is the name of the context, and the device is the interface. You can choose differnt interfaces, but in both configs i only have the space navigator setup, so they will always be the same.
