Hi everyone,
would it be possible with X-Mouse to invert the Wheel-Direction while the key eg. CTRL is pressed only?

I have an application requires to use the CTRL key + use scroll with wheel into move anything into a direction.
But the direction should be inverted. There is not way to set the control wheel direction in the application.

The the CTRL key is released then the wheel direction should be normal.

Thank you..

Yes it is possible - use two layers, on the second layer, change scroll wheel up to wheel down, and scroll wheel down to wheel up...
Then use layer modifier keys to switch to layer 2 when CTRL is held.

It should work, but beware, some application use CTRL+WHEEL to do other things (like zoom for example) so it might conflict with those applications!
