Extra Mouse buttons

Post by ichserbe » Sat Oct 25, 2008 4:43 am

For windows mice that have more than right, left and scroll buttons, is there a way to see what messages they are sending in RR so that i may implement them into my programming? I tried to use message watcher, but it did not record any of my button clicks.

You should be getting 'mouseDown' and 'mouseUp' messages (and a few more), which have a parameter mouseButtonNumber which will tell you how the user clicked on the control.
