Function keys of SpaceMouse / SpacePilot failed to start NX-commands.
The F-keys 1-10, FIT, Top View etc. do not work for NX, while other
applications (e.g. Windows Explorer) the F-keys do work.
Key-board keys like Esc/Alt/Ctrl and the large "controller cap" do work
correct in NX.
Also, the F-keys are listed and set correct in the button definitions.
Solution
Make sure NX is run as normal process, and NOT started with "Run as
Administrator".

Also 3Dconnection software should run on windows 10 as normal process; meaning,
NOT started with "Run as Administrator".
By adding the column "Elevated" in your Task manager you can see if ugraf.exe and 3dx-processes are started as Administrator.

This is specific to Windows 10, and soon as there is a difference between how
NX and 3Dconnection processes are started then this F-keys failed to work.
