The software features an extensive list of functions available to map to your mouse buttons. These include shifting or combining buttons to perform different actions; creating timed actions that change depending on how long you hold a button down for; mapping simulated keystrokes that send custom keystrokes, key sequences, or mouse actions when you press a mouse button; and launching specific applications.
All these functions add up to a rather comprehensive program that can address the mouse customization needs of even the most advanced user. Getting your mouse set up exactly as you want might take a little while, but the effort will be worth it.
It can be turned on by simply launching the app. Then, the user is free to assign new functions to their mouse buttons as they wish. To utilize the X-Mouse Button Control auto-click function, the user has to set their desired mouse script up.
X-Mouse Button Control is a powerful mouse customization tool. It is ideal for people who want to perform a wide range of different functions with just a click of a button or tap of their scroll wheel. With around 100 different actions and up to nine mouse controls, the configuration options are almost endless. Due to this extensive range of options, however, it can seem quite intimidating and complicated for inexperienced users. With no user guide easily accessible, it will take most users time to fully figure out what they can achieve.
I use a Logitech M570 Trackball under Windows 10. I want to simply make buttons 4 & 5 send keystrokes for a specific application. For reasons I can't fathom, the Setpoint software simply cannot do this for this application (Sierra Chart).
I can't for the life of me figure out what the conflict is here. Does anyone have any suggestions on how to fix this? Or a possible alternative to XBC for both remapping the 4 & 5 buttons, but also for inverting the scroll direction?
I don't know why this conflict existed in the first place, but I now know how to solve it. In Setpoint, buttons 4 & 5 must be set to "Other" and then "Generic Button". Now everyone plays nicely together. Thanks to the user forum for figuring this out.
To change options like how quickly the mouse pointer moves and whether your computer makes a sound when you turn on Mouse Keys, in the Ease of Access Center, under Control the mouse with the keyboard, click Set up Mouse Keys.
Hello TheRaider,For me, Animate (not Pro) has a zoom tool that moves in fixed increments that are displayed in the zoom factor selector, but much more extended (1,25% to 891.200%) and I can use the left mouse button (when zoom tool is selected) for incremental zoom in, and Alt+left mouse button for incremental zoom out.Also, the middle mouse click can be used for this purpose. Alternatively, of course, we can use the spacebar for drag the current view. I cant discover for the moment if a continuos zoom is posible in this software. Photoshop, as example, can zoom in continuous mode with Alt+middle mouse wheel spin, and may be that these difference can create some confusion. Best Regards.Yoryo
I have a Logitech Performance MX mouse. I do not have the Logitech Control Center software installed and all four buttons on the left side of the mouse work. They show up as buttons 4, 5, 6, and 9. Perhaps you need to restart your Mac to finish removing the Logitech Control Center.
\t \tYour mouse probably has several buttons and maybe a scroll wheel or two, but are you using the default settings or can you open and close Web pages, turn the volume up and down when you play music, or simulate any keystroke? You can, with X-Mouse Button Control. This free utility lets you set customized profiles, called Layers, with individually customized mouse controls in each, and rapidly switch between them. You can create separate mouse control profiles for individual applications, such as games that don't support extended mouse buttons. Or, you can have the scroll wheel change to a volume control when you hover your cursor over the system tray.
\t \tX-Mouse Button Control's main interface shows your profiles in the main window and configures them via a series of tabs labeled Layer 1 through 5, with another tab for Scrolling & Navigation. Each Layer has a name entry field and up to 8 mouse controls, including left, right, and middle buttons; wheel up and down; and tilt right and left. Drop-down lists let us choose from a huge range of commands or No Change (Don't Intercept), which leaves the default command intact. We started by naming our first Layer and selecting our control options. In the Application/Windows Profile pane, we browsed to several applications to create custom mouse commands, such as opening Outlook's inbox. The Settings button offered three tabs of options to configure: General, Global Hotkeys, and Modifier Keys. When we'd made all our selections, we clicked Apply. X-Mouse seamlessly applied our settings, with no discernible difference in performance or feel. We tried the program with several different mice, including a wireless laser laptop mouse and a wired laser gaming mouse that actually had too many controls for X-Mouse, including a thumbwheel. However, X-Mouse let us map any control we chose. We could right-click the program's system tray icon and choose any Layer, enter Setup, disable X-Mouse's controls, and other choices.
\t \tX-Mouse is a great way to get more out of your mouse. With a little effort, you can set up individualized control profiles that let you do things with your mouse that you'd need a series of clicks and keystrokes to do the usual way.

Requires Windows Vista or later. These can be used as hotkeys with some (but not all) mice which have a second wheel or support tilting the wheel to either side. In some cases, software bundled with the mouse must instead be used to control this feature. Regardless of the particular mouse, Send and Click can be used to scroll horizontally in programs which support it.
Joy1 through Joy32: The buttons of the controller. To help determine the button numbers for your controller, use this test script. Note that hotkey prefix symbols such as ^ (control) and + (shift) are not supported (though GetKeyState can be used as a substitute). Also note that the pressing of controller buttons always "passes through" to the active window if that window is designed to detect the pressing of controller buttons.
Multiple controllers: If the computer has more than one controller and you want to use one beyond the first, include the controller number (max 16) in front of the control name. For example, 2joy1 is the second controller's first button.
Reconfigure the software that came with your mouse or keyboard (sometimes accessible in the Control Panel or Start Menu) to have the "mystery key" send some other keystroke. Such a keystroke can then be defined as a hotkey in a script. For example, if you configure a mystery key to send Ctrl+F1, you can then indirectly make that key as a hotkey by using ^F1:: in a script.
The following is a last resort and generally should be attempted only in desperation. This is because the chance of success is low and it may cause unwanted side-effects that are difficult to undo:
Disable or remove any extra software that came with your keyboard or mouse or change its driver to a more standard one such as the one built into the OS. This assumes there is such a driver for your particular keyboard or mouse and that you can live without the features provided by its custom driver and software.
I have the Logitech darkfeild mouse (the one that works on glass) and was wondering how I can remap one of my currently unused buttons (my zoom button) to function as a selected keyboard button (control or supper)? ....I am also using 13.04.... FYI.
