Title: doubling up mouse buttons/admin buttons
Post by: vidmouse on July 03, 2007, 05:47:35 am

I currently have two admin buttons for Enter and Pause (P) that I'd like to be able to also use for mouse buttons when I install my trackball, so that I can use it under Windows as well.  Not quite sure how to do this --- advice?

Joytokey or possibly AutoHotKey is your best bet.  What are you using as an encoder?

I'm using an IPAC 4...

and never mind, this just made  me remember that with this
encoder I don't need the admin buttons, as the P1 button has
shift-key capability to allow other buttons to become admin buttons.

Duh.   ::)  Always seem to forget about that...

Thanks for the reply...
