Greetings XT777

Glad to have you with us  ;D

a couple of questions first:
What is yous Windows Operating System (ie. XP Vista 32, 7 64)?
What type of mouse, or how many buttons does your mouse have?

Let em know and we will get you worked out  :Thmbsup:

XT777:
win 7

no mouse

tablet with, pen, touch, virtual keyboard.

got the dock to appear/dissappear with alt key and then programmed a "flick" to activate "alt" but both flick and virtual keyboard require two (2) attempts before action...

XT777:
got item one straightened out.

any suggestions on reassigning the rotate function to another key besides mouse scroll?

still interested in changing center image.

also how do i add the recycle bin to the dock?

LOL


I was just in the middle of a graphics tutorial for #1  ;D

As for #2. There is no native way to simulate the mouse wheel spin, so on it's own Circle Dock will not spin.
There is a couple of possibilities.
1.) If you can assign a touch motion to simulate the Arrow Left and Arrow Right Keys. The Arrow Right and Left will make Circle Dock spin accordingly. As for re-assignment; No way that I know of :(
2.) I am in the experimentation phase to be sure.
There is a program called Stroke It
This program may have a way to simulate the scroll button as a touch screen solution.
I fear that it may interfere with your current touch screen software.
I have yet to fully test a plugin that I am working with the folks at Stroke It on, but may at some point become a native solution ;)

There is a third party solution that would require some work.
There is AutoIT and AutoHotKey
Either one of these programs could be used to create a small based program that can re-assign the necessary keys.
As to how exactly is a bit above my pay grade  :-[
