Buttons not recognized, Logitech M560

Post by Asterix040 »

I use Logitech M560 mouse.
Previously i was using Logitech Set point software to remap my keys, but it is not reliable under Windows 10.
I installed XMouse Button Control, but some buttons are not recognized by program. For instance 2 side buttons, middle button... When I press them, line in the layer pane doesn't go yellow.
Is there a way to add those buttons manually or a way to force program to recognize them?

A lot of Logitech mice don't send the "default" windows button messages for buttons 4 & 5 which means XMBC will not see the messages.
You need to use Set Point to restore the buttons to send the WINDOWS default messages - which would be back and forward/next - then hopefully XMBC will see the default messages through the windows mouse hook and be able to intercept them.

Ive had to so this with y Logitech devices - never had a problem once its been set, and you don't normally need to keep the Logitech software either once its been setup correctly (not sure if this applies to all Logitech devices).

i also have m560
unfortunately to tell you
It does not support XMBC
Because his definition is not conventional

Similar mouse you can find M546
it has perfect support
