Key To Simulate Mouse Button

Post by billbell52 »

XMouse Button Control works great simulating a key using a mouse button. I was wondering if the reverse is possible. Can a keyboard key be used to simulate a mouse button. For example, could I use Page Down to simulate the middle mouse button.

Sorry for the delay.
This is not possible with XMBC - which is specific to mouse input devices.

You would need a program designed to monitor the keyboard and remap keys to actions.
These already exist, for example you could look at AutoHotkey or maybe Eventghost, but its not something that XMBC even attempts to do.

Thanks,
Phil
