Mouse buttons "stuck" down
Posted: Thu Jun 25, 2020 10:11 pm
XMBC Version: 2.19.2
Windows Version: Windows 10 1909 Build 18363.900
Mouse Information (brand/model): Logitech K400plus keyboard
Relevant Computer Information (CPU, RAM etc): i5-8500 16gigs ram
Did the problem occur after an upgrade of XMBC? (If so, from what version?): No
Did the problem occur after a Windows update/upgrade? (If so, from what version?): No
How long have you used XMBC?: Years
What language and keyboard layout do you use in Windows?: US english
Clear description of the problem - try and include as much information as possible, including what button and mappings you are having problems with (if applicable).:
Love the software, but I've had this problem forever and I've finally cracked. I hold down the middle mouse button to scroll in firefox, and use the right mouse button to draw gestures. Unfortunately these buttons often fail to release until I press the button a second time. I have experimented with everything I can think of - chording, no chording, blocking, no blocking, mapping as simulated keystrokes (eg {MMB} ), on and on. After disabling XMBC the issue goes away. Holding down is not necessary, as even just clicking the buttons can cause them to get stuck.
Here's the big problem though, I use an autohotkey script to remap two keys on my keyboard, ESC and F1, to the middle and right mouse buttons respectively. I suspect this has something to do with it (Non-Client messages? Remap Simulated Output?)
I've tried a few different strategies for remapping in my AHK script, but it makes no difference. I wonder if an option can be added to loop a check to see if a button is actually being held down or not.
I recorded a log , but I don't see how to attach it. Perhaps it's because this is my first post...
