3DConnexion Mouse and multiple axis motion

in Using Onshape
Is it just me or does the 3DConnexion mouse only seem to rotate/pan on one axis at a time?   It's a small detail, but if this is fixable it would be more optimal to be able to move through multiple axis at the same time rather than only one at a time.  For example I can't move in the X and Y at the same time.  Only X until I move Y far enough over to have that direction take president over X and then it jumps to moving along that path.

    On Mac (don’t have windows machine to test) if you open the 3dconnexion control panel in preferences, there is a checkbox that affects this behaviour.

    With quick try below 'Dominant' setting made movement as you described on windows drivers.

    I have a Windows machine, mine came unchecked Dominant, and works fine for moving in multiple axes at once and is very smooth.
