Broken navigation with 3d connexion Space Pilot in node editor
Needs Information from Developers, NormalPublic

Description

This is a very minor issue, but navigating node editor with 3d mouse device is very janky and almost impossible. However it works perfectly fine in some other 2d editors like UV editor .
I'm not sure if this issue is the same for newer 3d connexion devices. I'm using an old hp 3dconnexion spacepilot.

Exact steps for others to reproduce the error

  1. Open Shader editor or Geometry node editor.
  2. Use 3d mouse device to navigate.
  3. Without pulling it up or pushing it down, try panning the view with 3d mouse.

(moving the view in some directions will be impossible)

@Hans Goudey (HooglyBoogly) Can you check? Not sure how bad this is, perhaps video recording would be useful for others to assess and classify this?

I made a video. Sorry for the quality and the format, I didn't know how to present this problem in a better way. Notice the stuttering in the movement on the left side. I believe it happens when there is no up/down unput from the knob. On the right side is the UV editor just for comparison
