Does this allow one to customize the button functions for different programs? Can I set the thumb button to be the Esc key in autocad?

Sorry for the dealy in answering you on this. I don't know that you can; I haven't tried. Looking at the control panel and mouse I didn't see a spot for changing the esc button.

There were/are no drivers/software that comes with the mouse. BUT what I do is use x-mouse button control utility (http://www.highrez.co.uk/downloads/XMouseButtonControl.htm). This allows you to change ANY button assignment plus much more. Like MS Intellimouse but way better. HTH...

Could not find a way to customize the two arrow buttons on the side for anything else than navigating forward and back in a browser. In fact, the only instruction sheet provided by the Perixx company states only these uses for the arrow buttons. The instruction sheet can be downloaded from: http://www.perixx.com/en/service/Perixx_Manual/PERIMICE/PERIMICE-713.pdf .

Best answer, what you see is what you get. When I received my mouse it didn't come with any instructions regarding reprogramming the device. I would say that this device functions as a standard mouse not a gaming mouse. I hope this helps.

You need a piece of software to translate the A, B, C into other key combos, or macros. I use Controller Mate (http://www.orderedbytes.com/controllermate/) for this purpose, and it works great, which is more then I can say for the foot pedal itself. I assume there are other solutions.I've never attempted to use the software provided (never even installed it) because I already had Controller Mate in use for other automation tasks.

There is some easy to use software that does that. I tell it that I want to map certain keyboard shortcuts or macros to the buttons and save that as a profile. When the linked program runs, the Synapse program swaps the profile to match. I have five profiles that took me maybe half an hour of tweaking to get perfect - I didn't have to take so long, but I was playing with it a bit - and after that it works on it's own.

Just download and install the software from Logitech website. Use it to change the programming of the buttons...

If you use a mac you can program the buttons using Steermouse or USB Overdrive

Use it with Autocad and Sketchup daily. I like to switch hands once and a while to keep from wearing one out. Seems to help.

Yes they can. Currently only the amount of buttons can be keybound, without adding shift or cntl. But the amount is almost endless. I have all button bound, and again with holdin shift, and again for holdin cntl just for wow. It's very customizable.

I didn't Receive any instructions with mine. So I was going to order a pocket programming card to change settings. U plug your esc into card and u can go through settings. ?? Pretty sure it will work.

All buttons other than the Left Click may be programmed as any key or combination of Keys (Macros)

Not sure, but when you use the Logitech SetPoint software, you can program the buttons for certain commands. I have one button that pulls all programs into one screen. So you can certainly set up commands and whatnot.

Hi, Cynthia. Not sure what you mean by programming the buttons for other commands, as I've never done that. The roller bar is used for the same purposes as your mouse, but you use only one finger (I use my index finger) as opposed to using your hand to grip the mouse. I have found that I have to pay attention not to get lazy and let my wrists rest on the pads in front of the keyboard as I'm typing, as that compression does not help my carpal tunnel situation. Except for the unique "mouse", I find the keyboard the same as any other. Hope this helps a little bit. Kathy Z.

You can program the buttons based on what game you play in game settings. Although, some games don't have a setup for the buttons.

Hi David, Yes it is possible since one can add macros (combination of keys) and functions to those programmable keys. You can look at http://support.microsoft.com/kb/237179 for further reference. Regards...

Yes, you are able to set the programmable buttons to whatever key on your keyboard. If you get the mouse, just go into the driver program that comes with the mouse, and you'll see the list of all the buttons on the mouse ordered 1-7. Just click one and choose the option "single key". Then just press the key you want binded, and that's it. Sorry if that was really on-going. I just wanted to be descriptive.

Yep. Illustrator and photoshop. Most buttons are set up to just switch tools but I've got a few tied to actions for the more repetitive stuff.
