Re: Please add Logi Lift Ergo Mouse Support

XMBC does not and can not support specific devices. XMBC hooks into Windows mouse message system which provides native Windows support for five buttons, scroll and tilt (this is why XMBC can not support more than 5 buttons, as described in the F.A.Q). If your mouse/mouse driver does not send/trigger...

Re: How can I perform a simulated key, only when pressing two buttons at the same time ?

I think so, don't see why not... you wont be able to use "sticky left button [click drag]" because it wont send the alt. On the left button try sim keys, and method 3 (during): {alt}{LMB} That should do it... You will have to try it and see if it works (I am at work right now so cant test ...

Re: How can I perform a simulated key, only when pressing two buttons at the same time ?

ChatGPT may be using out of date information there. You might want to look at button chording instead (even if the GhatGPT method works). Button chording allows you to chord two buttons to perform different actions. XMBC has supported that for quite some time now (at least 5 years), despite what Cha...

Re: Performing action on BUTTONUP rather than BUTTONDOWN ?

Yep, you already found it, but select Method 2, "As mouse button is released" in the How to send the simulated key press dropdown.
Thanks for leaving your detailed message for others!

Re: Layers Issue

I wonder if there is some Asus or HP software that is also intercepting the hooks - although if the buttons highlight in orange in XMBC, that suggests that XMBC is seeing the messages. Does it fail in ALL applications or only some? It will be worth turning on debug logging (Settings -> Logging and U...

Re: application/profiles shortcut

Sorry, what do you mean by check/uncheck and application be shortcut? DO you mean an application profile on the application/window profile list? If so, then no there are not shortcuts per say... You can use the keyboard to navigate to the list control, then arrow up/down to select and space to toggl...

Re: rapid fire simulated sequence but played out over a longer period

Ahhh, I see.... that may be quite tricky.... effectively your saying delay the multiple physical clicks but still honor them, just with a delay (like adding to a queue that is filling quickly but emptying slowly. It makes sense, but its not something that XMBC can do right now. And I'm not sure but ...

Re: rapid fire simulated sequence but played out over a longer period

Hi, I'm not entirely sure what you want to achieve, but I will give it a go. Firstly, options 4 and 5 are not really important. They are basically the same as options 1 and 2 these days (and can be considered legacy/redundant). Now, Method 6 repeats the keys only while the button is held down (press...

Re: Giving a "settings saving" error

Why are you using 2.20.2 - the latest release is 2.20.5? The error appears to be that it is unable to write to the settings file in "'C:\Program Files\X-Mouse-Button\XMBCSettings.xml" but that is not where the settings file should be (as that is a protected, read only folder that XMBC is i...

Re: Simulated keys inside simulated keys?

No. sorry, it is not possible to call another buttons macros from simulated keys. You can of course call {MWUP} but that will simulate a genuine wheel up event, not what wheel up is mapped to in XMBC.

Re: X-MBC keeps blocking input in Windows 10

Nope, haven't even looked at it to be honest. Other than some generic improvements, which I guess haven't made much difference (are you keeping up with the latest Beta's?) Unfortunately, trying to track down issues like this, that can not be reproduced here (under the debugger) is incredibly difficu...

Re: Stop while running?

That would be a sure way to break many functions in XMBC lol! What about simkeys that are expected to take longer to run that the button is held Or sticky simulated keys/actions Or repeating simulated keys And all the other cases that would completely break if everything was reset when all buttons w...

Re: ALT + Scroll

Easiest way is to use layers, and set the layer trigger (modifier key) to ALT. However, the problem with this, is that if the target application already does something different when you press ALT and scroll, then that different action will also take place - so its not flawless. In that case, you ma...
