Keyboard shortcut for intellimouse "instant viewer"

[rojer_31]

I've googled all over the place and haven't been able to find a way to assign a alternate shortcut to trigger instant viewer (part of the microsoft mouse software). Even just ctrl+middle button is better than just middle button. It is quite an usable way to switch apps. So can someone find a method?

ps. I find it most curious that there is no mention even in the autohotkey forums.

I don't know anything about instant viewer, but it sounds like there's already a hotkey.  So why not just make your own keyboard shortcut and have it send the original hotkey.

If you want to use the default instant viewer hotkey for something else, you can do that also.

The 'original hotkey' can only be one of the different mouse clicks. So if I make a keyboard shortcut, I will still have to set it up (with autohotkey) so that it will emulate the mouse click.

I however do like to have the middle button for other purposes.. So any ideas?
