| swap 3rd and 4th mouse buttons Hello Is there any way to swap 3rd and 4th mouse button? I checked the registry but couldnt find anything in particular. It would be kind of stupid to write filter driver of mouclass just to do that. Best Regards FWS |

| Re: swap 3rd and 4th mouse buttons I don't believe that all the buttons on four button mouse will work without specific mouse software. A keyboard with extra buttons has a special driver. What kind of a mouse is it? -- Ronald Sommer "fws" <fws@unreal.pl> wrote in message news:eod7ul$et4$1@atlantis.news.tpi.pl... :> Did you look in Control Panel, Mouse? : : Yes, I did, there is nothing useful there. : : Best Regards : FWS |

| Re: swap 3rd and 4th mouse buttons >I don't believe that all the buttons on four button mouse will work without > specific mouse software. It does. All four buttons are recognized in both system (3rd is all direction scroll function, and 4th is backward), and games. Unfortunatly thumb button is marked as 4th, and Unreal Tournament which I mainly play is limited to only 3 buttons, therefore I cant bind 4th. > A keyboard with extra buttons has a special driver. It depend on buttons, for example so called multimedia buttons like vol up/down, play, stop etc. should work fine on windows drivers. > What kind of a mouse is it? Logitech Dual Optical. Installing Logitech drivers is not an option, cause they change mouse behavior profile which would result in temporary drop in performance which I cannot afford right now. Besides usualy there is a lot of problems with installing any drivers during tournaments, so drivers are disadvantage for those used to them. Best Regards FWS |

As I said, drivers also tend to change mouse behavior, which mean I would have to get used to them, and that also mean that temporary my performance wouldnt be as good as it should be. Also if during one certain tournament I would be allowed to install them, and during another one not, that would create some serious problem since you cant just switch like that all the time and give your best. Its the same like playing on someone else mouse. There must be some way to swap these buttons in windows without drivers or mouclass filter. I will continue searching till either I will find it, or give up, and code filter :P Best Regards FWS |
