I get it... The problem with that is how do you get that HID data from the arduino into XMB in the first place.
You would probably have to use something like raw/direct input, or write a device driver (that's not going to happen) or I guess take it via a keyboard hook (for keys such as F13-24) That ...

Re: XMBC Simulated Keys via external hardware (arduino) device
It depends what you mean.
If you mean using an arduino to send simulated keys etc. but still have XMBC translate the mouse buttons and communicate with the arduino to send keystrokes, then no not really, because the hook is the reception of the mouse messages (XMBC seeing what the mouse is sending ...

Re: Simulated keys does not work
I'm not sure, I will have to find some time to try this out here and see if there is a problem, or a way to get it working.
I can't do that right now but I will try and get an answer to you within the week (if not, remind me!).

Have you tried the latest beta? You didn't mention what version you are running - all should be good with the latest beta(??!!) I just haven't gotten around to releasing it yet!

Re: Simulated keys does not work
I'm sorry, what exactly is the problem?
You have said what you have done, but I cant see where you describe what is not working?
NOTE: If you do {LMBD} (left mouse button down), and don't follow it with {LMBU} (left mouse button up) you risk the left button getting stuck. Why not just use {LMB}? I ...

Re: InpOut32 and 64 sample
This belongs here really.
This "other software" is a dead space with even fewer views than the Inpout forum (which is also pretty dead really).

Re: New ideas
Welcome,
You are talking about mouse "gestures".
There is software out there that can do this already (particularly some browser extensions for example), but it is not something XMBC can do right now. It was something that was on my to do list for about 15 years - I never have gotten around to it ...

Re: Side game mouse thumb button to be shift and work with scroll wheel button
Hi, I'm not entirely sure what you are asking, you say you have done the shift key on button 4, I presume using simulated keystrokes?
But how do you want it to interact with the scroll wheel? In simulated keystrokes you can choose how to send the key, by default (method 1) will press and release it ...

Re: Switching to fast scroll
I don't think that is currently possible. I can add it to the todo list, but I cant make any promises on timescales, other than it will have to wait til 2.21 is out (that's been in beta far too long and I need to get it released soon!)

Re: Delay before horizontal scrolling
Button Held is intended to allow you to perform different actions depending on how long you hold the button for. Hence the delay (I suspect). Are you using it that way, or do you just want the button to do the scrolling and nothing else, in which case, skip button held and go straight for change ...

Re: How to launch an application in the foreground?
Simple answer, I'm not sure. Windows goes quite some way to stop applications stealing foreground, but normally when an application is launched, it would launch in the foreground, so I'm not sure why that is not the case when launching from XMBC.

Re: Global hotkeys not working
Did you enable (tick the box) the global hotkeys AND close the setup screen after applying the settings?
As mentioned in the user guide, global hotkeys are disabled when the main setup window is open.
If you only have two layers turned on, then yes next layer should cycle between them.

Check out "button chording". The user manual covers it hopefully enough, you just need to know what to look for

The user guide/manual has a little section near the bottom about changing the icons, gives the filenames etc and where to drop them.
Good luck
