Simulat Pressing Scroll Wheel Button

[billbell52]

There is a cool free 3D drawing program called Sketchup. It uses the scroll wheel button to enable a tool called orbit. When you hold the scroll wheel down you can fly around the 3d model by moving the mouse. I have a rare disease and one symptom is it affects my dexterity. I cannot hold it down and move the mouse around at the same time. I was looking for an alternative way to enable orbit. One idea is to simulate pressing the scroll wheel button using a key. Another is to enable orbit by clicking the scroll wheel button once and disable it by pressing it again.

I am asking for ideas on how to best solve problem.

You should be able to use sticky buttons in XMBC.

Create a profile for your application (or just modify the default one for now) and set the middle button action to "sticky middle click".

That should turn the button into a toggle, press one to hold down, press again to release.

Thanks,
Phil
