Microsoft mouse 2000 and wheel tilt repeat

Post by eried »

I can't get this to work, the rate is always very high. I am using xmouse only to map these 2 actions of the tilt to back/forward (so stupid that ms removed these options from the driver!). There is a way disable the repeat? or make it very slow? I don't know if the 500 ms delay is working but I don't notice any change

There are some repeat/bounce settings in the advanced settings tab but I dont know if they will work - you will have to play around with the numbers and see if it makes any difference - every mouse seems to behave differently which is a royal pain in the a**.

I have been planning for some time to try and overcome this but so far I havnt found an elegant solution 9mostly because I haven't had time I think).

Thanks,
Phil

Thanks, I saw the options, they don't do anything. If you have some way to test (log, sourcecode, etc) I can help trying it. Weird thing is that the xmouse config window highlights the tilt wheel correctly so I guess it is detected properly when I tilt it, I just want to avoid the repeats (goes back several pages on tilting if I don't do just a quick flick)

Maybe I can just add some mapping directly without xmouse (registry/inf)? I haven't researched a lot, my ancient mouse just died and being lefty I have limited options (because mouses are usually shaped to right hand) but this MS 2000 wireless mouse had the tilt function that I believed MS allowed to configure to back/forward, so it was the perfect replacement!... but official software is so crappy! and xmouse is the only alternative I have found.
