Here is where things start to differ from other users somewhat:

At this point, the setting is not changed back unless I do so. Once my laptop loads everything, I change it back to page scrolling. On startup/logon, the option for page scrolling always gets changed back to number of lines if I am using a Kensington device and drivers.

The scroll by page seems to be only available from Windows itself and not TrackballWorks or KensongtonWorks. The bug I found had to do using scrolling via page instead of lines. I just sent Kensington a summary on their KensingtonWorks rating page, hopefully this can get figured out. Using a regular corded mouse, a click-and-drag registers correctly, so it's something Kensington-related, it seems. So it selects a smaller ("later") area than I actually want. But if in a text area, for instance, if I left-click and hold, and immediately drag, the selected area does not begin in the correct location (where I clicked), it waits a fraction of a second before the click registers. I don't notice an issue with just single-clicking stuff. I've noticed I have a lag between holding down left-click (to drag and select an area), and when that click actually registers. I uninstalled TrackballWorks and installed KensingtonWorks 2.1.11 (the current version).

I'm using an Expert Mouse (corded), on corporate Windows 10 64-bit.

Add it to your autostart configuration (Settings > Session > Startup > Application Autostart, add xbindkeys).Can you elaborate on this, just for understanding? However, you will want it to autolaunch after every shutdown. Then, just launch xbindkeys outside the terminal ( Alt+ F2, then type xbindkeys). When you're done, save the file ( Ctrl+ O and Enter), and close nano ( Ctrl+ X). You would repeat this process for the other buttons. "xte 'keydown Control_L' 'keydown Alt_L' 'key D' 'keyup Alt_L' 'keyup Control_L'" Or, if you wanted to bind it to a desktop action (like minimize all windows, like shown below), you would tell it to simulate the keybinding with xte: # Minimize all windows on "2" button press This will create a text file by which you can configure xbindkeys.įor that key, create an entry like so: "command"įor example, say you wanted to open Firefox when you pressed the mouse's "home" button (for me, button 10): # Run Firefox when "home" pressed Now, in a new terminal instance, do nano ~/.xbindkeysrc. The event will give you a number for the button you pressed ( button, towards the end). Then, go back to the terminal and find the last ButtonPress and/or ButtonRelease events (either one). Try not to move the mouse (it will make things hard to find), and click the button you want to set up. It should pop up a small little window with a white box and a black background. Then, open a terminal ( Ctrl+ Alt+ T) and run the xev command. sudo apt-get install xbindkeys xautomation You'll need to install xbindkeys and xautomation. You do not need to do this to launch programs.

There's a full explanation here, but I will try to explain it briefly here.įirstly, if you want to bind the keys to actions, you need to set up keyboard shortcuts for them (Settings > Keyboard > Shortcuts). It allows you to route specific button presses to commands. There's a commandline tool called xbindkeys. You can go ahead and edit it if you want, but, personally, I would not.
