CTRL button isn't the same like the keyboard
Posted: Fri Jun 24, 2022 10:51 pm
XMBC Installed version:[2.19.2] Windows 10
Ok first of all and because it's hard to explain and I am not a programer, I will describe just the scenario
* I'm enabling a Windows feature called "show location of pointer when I press CTRL key" from the mouse settings of Windows.
+ I made a profile for Firefox.
+ I assigned BUTTON 5 for (Button Chording). Then assigned the default (No chord) -for the button 5- to be CTRL key as {During (press on up, release on up)}. So it works default ctrl button in keyboard. But it DOESN'T in two situations:
FIRST SITUATION
Opening an image in a new tab in Firefox.
Wheel up and wheel down should now zoom in and out while holding on button 5 but they don't so I directly moved to the chord that I have already established for button 5 and in it I assigned the wheel up and down from "No Change" to [{CTRL}{MWUP}] and [{CTRL}{MWON}]. And if you ask me: Have you made it (during) or (pressed) or any of the nine modes? I'll say that I tried all of them. I even tried changing many other things, maybe all possible things that can be done to get the result that I want but I didn't get it.
What is the result that I wanted to take place? I could already zoom in and down If I hold on button 5 while wheeling up and down BUT either:
A. the circle shows up too many times while wheeling up and down (which doesn't happen if I hold instead the keyboard ctrl button while wheeling. As the circle shows only one time when I release ctrl button in keyboard if I use it with wheel to zoom in/out).
OR
B. I could hide the circle while zooming by changing the mode to "6. Repeatedly while the button is down". But the defect with this is that even when I release the CTRL (button 5), the wheel keeps performing the action of zooming in/out untill I press the ctrl (button 5) again (which also doesn't applies on using the keyboard ctrl button instesd).
So, is there any options to get the same result I get from the keyboard (not showing circle too many times while wheeling AND releasing the action of CTRL+wheel once I'm releasing the button 5)?
SECOND SITUATION
If you open any site on Firefox (say youtube. com) then open a new tab, when you try to write some letters of the word "youtube" in the url bar Firefox suggests some results from history as you are typing which one of them should be youtube. com but it also shows a button called "Switch to Tab" next to it because you have youtube already opened in another tab. Now try to hold ctrl on keyboard.. the "Switch to Tab" button dissapears, which doesn't happen with button 5 that I reassigned to behave like ctrl.
