Another buttons
« on: October 07, 2009, 06:21 AM »
How can I set another mouse button (I have 8 buttons) to show circledock? I try to change parameter "VisibilityMouseButton=" in Config.ini, but it doesn't work. Also, XButton1 and XButto2 doesn't work too. I use wheelmousebutton in my work and I want to set opening on another mouse button. And sorry for my english :)

Hi,
Solution 1: Use your mouse software to remap your mouse to keyboard Combination. With my logitech I use a special button remap to ctrl-alt-F2 and set this combination in CD.
Solution 2: Use AutoHotkey to remap button on keyboard/mouse combination.

I suggest solution 1, it's more simple.
Part of the inhumanity of the computer is that, once it is competently programmed and working smoothly, it is completely honest.

I don't use mouse software for some reasons.

With AutoHotKey You can map long right click on keyboard or simultaneus Right + Left click on keyboard (I read something in an other thread). Special mouse button are managed only from the driver instead right, left and middle button from windows event. X1 and X2 are also managed from windows but only some mouse have it.
