Will 3DX Spaceball device work in GH

hi all.

i noticed this did not seem to work in GH as it appears to always be active in the Rhino window only. even clicking in the GH window will only let the mouse activate and not the spaceball device.

does anyone happen to know for a fact that this will not work in GH? i think i got a little action where I could move the rhino model with the 3DX device while at the same time panning the GH window with the mouse but i'm envisioning panning and zooming with the spaceball but i assume there is a good reason why this won't work.

thanks for any leads or advice.
