Hi There,
I've these 2 configurable keys on my new Logitech Media keyboard. I want them for using it for zoom in and out buttons, like on other logitech keyboards? Maybe could there be an exe which presses the ctrl key and scrolls down 1 click. And one exe for scrolling up one click while holding ctrl key. It shouldn't be that hard, right?

Before others here start recommending AutoHotKey, which is nice, but a bit overkill just for this, I'd recommend the free HotkeyP utility. I'm using it for similar purposes.

That's why I suggested HotkeyP instead of AHK. Is 64 kB small enough?

It can have a tray icon, but you can switch it off, if you prefer, it's not needed for normal operation.

No I mean it in this way: The program should only run when I press a shortcut. And close immediately.

Oh yes, got it. And you want to trigger such a program by assigning it to the special keys using the supplied Logitech application, right? This might lag a bit.
My idea—and what I'm actually using, just with Genius keyboard—was to replace this application with HotkeyP, which has much smaller footprint and is incredibly more versatile. (I don't know this Logitech thing, but I suppose it's terrible to the same extent as the one from Genius.)

Install AHK, save each code snippet to an .ahk file, for each.ahk compile to .exe, deinstall AHK (if you want to). Or used the attached, already compiled files (but I really recommend installing and playing around with AHK - you'll very soon find yourself making your own small programs with ease and pleasure  ) 36dea797d770df7282aba90dcef3fce6 *CWheelUp.exe dacd60b53475ec06bc81765f67657f9c *CWheelDown.exe

I've got AHK myself now. But it does not work in photoshop. I changed it to ^!{WheelUp} , but that doesn't matter because Photoshop loses focus...

Don't want to intrude again, but it works like a charm with HotkeyP in Photoshop...
