Using Xmouse with Elecom mouse setting tool in tandem
Posted: Fri Sep 10, 2021 10:30 am
XMBC Version: v2.19.2
Windows Version: windows 10 pro (latest updates)
Mouse Information (brand/model): 3 mice (main elecom EX-6 - sub mince microsoft intellipoint, elecom relacom)
Relevant Computer Information (CPU, RAM etc): ryzen 9, 64gb ram, nvidia 3080, SSD's
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?: Just started configuration
What language and keyboard layout do you use in Windows?: english UK
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).:
Firstly would like to say that this bit of software seems like the perfect solution to my problem but a small issue to overcome.
So I have 3 mice attached to my computer for different reasons. the lecom EX-6 Is my primary mouse that i have converted to be wearable, the other two mice are positioned in convenient places for me to use when i dont want to slip the elecom on my hand and back off again for short tasks.
I have got Xmouse installed and it works fine to accept the buttons 1-5 input from all three mice however the problem comes from the fact that it seems to intercept the elecom EX-6 inputs before the elecom software is activated
xmouse does not recognise the extended buttons on the EX-6 so i have the elecom software to drive that in different profiles but i can't get it and xmouse to operate at the same time.
With the intellipoint software if i allocate buttons 4-5 to something else it overrides xmouse but if i set it to forward back (default) then xmouse picks it up as button 4-5 in elecom software setting the button to forward/back does not send that button click to x mouse.
Is there a way i can get the input from a specific mouse to pass through and the input from the other two mice to be driven by the xmouse software.
Or
Is there a way for the elecom software to be above xmouse in the priority list.
It seems that having xmouse running disables elecom mouse setting tool entirely.
I have tried googling for an answer and i have tried to use many other bits of software to make this happen.
If i haven't explained myself clearly then please do ask for clarifications
Regards
Neil
