multiple mouse button

Discussion in 'AutoCAD' started by Nicola Debiasi, Dec 2, 2003.

  1. Hi all,

    I bought a 5 button mouse. With Autocad 2002 I can use three buttons and the
    scroll; is it possible to assign some function at the remaining 2 buttons?

    Thanks
    Nicola

  2. Thanks Ken,

    I tried to find the tab you mentioned, but I wasn't able to find it (I found
    "mouse" in the control panel). Do you think it is because of my operative
    system (windows Xp)?

    For many mouses with multiple buttons and special features, you need
    to install specialzed drivers to take advangate of the features. If
    your using a logitech mouse for example, you need to install the
    mouseware software and drivers that comes with it on CD, or better yet
    download them from logitech.com and install.

    I belive the default windows drivers for at least ps/2 mice only
    support 3button/scroll ability.

    Good luck.

    This program will allow you to assign anything to your
    mouse buttons.
