Mouse button behaviour

Hi!
I have a problem with Premiere Pro. When trimming a clip, premiere will stop trimming, eventhough I haven't released the mouse button yet. The same happens with dragging a clip.
You can imagine it's quite annoying to have your NLE decide when you're done trimming or dragging a clip. Also it makes my work go a lot slower.
So does anybody here know how to fix my problem?
My get-up is a 27" iMac, OsX Yosemite (10.10.2) and a normal wireless Magic Mouse.
My mouse doesn't
Thanks in advance!

Hey Peru Rob,
Actually, with a corded mouse there doesn't seem to be any problems..
I do kind of like the fact I can side-ways scroll with the magic mouse. Any chance I can somehow fix the problem while being able to use my cordless mouse?
Thanks,
Marten

Forward backward mouse buttons in konqueror?

Is there some trick to getting the forward and backward buttons on my mouse working with konqueror/dolphin? They work perfectly in firefox without me doing anything, but in konqueror they don't work.
If I go to configure shortcuts it doesn't register when I click the buttons. I've run xev and they show up as button 8 and button 9. I've set my xorg.conf mouse section as per the wiki to get 7 button mice to work but still no dice.

Use btnx: http://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Get … d_4_-_btnx
IMHO, this is the easiest way to configure your mouse buttons' behaviour.

Right mouse button strange behaviour

Hy there
When dragging a file from one folder to an other using the right mouse button the normal behaviour on windows 7 is to show a menu where I can choose: copy here, move here or create shortcut here. With my external mouse everything is fine but not with my touchpad. also the right click is not always recognized. Im pretty shure this behaviour is new after reinstalling.
Here my configuration
mac book pro 13 inch 2010
win 7
Bootcamp 3.1 the updatet to latest bootcamp, neither was working.
hope someone can help
cheers

Hello @exforester1,
I understand that your right-click no longer displays the context menu for you on your computer running Windows 7. I am providing you with an HP Support document: Using Microsoft System Restore (Windows 7), which will walk you through restoring your computer back to a point in time when the menu did show up properly. This should bring back the functionality that you are missing.
Please re-post if you require additional support. Thank you for posting on the HP Forums. Have a great day!
Please click the "Thumbs Up" on the bottom right of this post to say thank you if you appreciate the support I provide!

Lenovo Thinkpad Compact USB Keyboard with Trackpoint: Middle mouse button and scrolling

I got this keyboard (KU-1255).
Unfortunately, it generates bogus mouse button events if I click the middle mouse button and use the trackpoint:
With "thinkpad scrolling mode" disabled, the middle mouse button is released as soon as I move the trackpoint while still pressing the button!
Expected behaviour: The middle mouse button is pressed, the event created. Moving the trackpoint moves the cursor normally. Releasing the middle button creates a corresponding event.
With "thinkpad scrolling mode" enabled, the button is registered as pressed, then scrolling occurs as I move the trackpoint and the button is released if I release it.
Expected behaviour: No middle mouse button event is registered if I move the trackpoint. Pressing and releasing the middle mouse button is only registered if I click the button without moving the trackpoint.
When will there be a firmware update available for the keyboard, like for the SK-8855?
Since I am also using Linux, I would be really interested in fixing this in the firmware, not only getting a new Windows driver.

Help please.

Avoid window getting focus after pressing a mouse button on it

I want that a window does not get focus although I press a mouse button on it, in Windows XP.
I have search in Microsoft help and this fact is controlled by the Operating System itself. The notification that is sent after the user presses a mouse button is WM_MOUSEACTIVATE notification. The return value of this notification indicates the behaviour of the window after the mouse down, existing 4 options: MA_ACTIVATE, MA_ACTIVATEANDEAT; MA_NOACTIVATE & MA_NOACTIVATEANDEAT. The default is the first one, but I want to change the behaviour of the window to be the the third one: MA_NOACTIVATE, that does not activate the window, and does not discard the mouse message. The function that performs this is DefWindowProc according to the MSDN Help content.
Any help about doing this in Labview? Is there any special function in Labview that allows setting this behaviour to a window or should I use a Windows dll? In that case how can be programmed? Has anyone done it before? I'm working with Labview 8.6.1, and I haven't found anything about this. Any help will be very useful.
Thank you very much in advance.

It is the front panel window of a VI which I don't want to get focus. I have tried to achive this with property nodes, but the problem I think that cannot be solved in this way, because is the Operative System that gives the focus to the window when pressing a mouse button before Labview does anything. You can release the focus once the window have taken it with the Front Panel window focus property node, but what I really want is to keep the focus on the old window.
My idea is that the VI act as a background of my application, so never can be over the rest of the windows. Some of them are floating but others are standard and I don't want to use modal windows, so I cannot solve this with the Window Appearance options.
I have also tried to discard the mouse down in the Mouse Down? event, but I doesn't work, the window continues getting the focus although does not carry on any action.
Any suggestion?
Thank you for your interest

Find Supply Demand Form Left Mouse Button Behavior

Release 11.5.10.2, 10G database.
A customer has a strange mouse behaviour issue In the ASCP -> Supply/Demand form that the began after installing Demantra.
The mouse cursor is returning to the original location that it was just before the user attempted to click in another field.
If the customer uses custom folder, the problem is less apparent in that they can select additional fields in the folder's form..
There is a Note.753324.1 ''Diagnosing Form Mouse Focus Problems In Applications R11i" that suggests a few options; but the this customer is on forms 6.0.8.28.0 and it is unclear if the issue in that note applies in this case.
Does anyone have any ideas as to how to get to the root of this issue or have seen it before and have a solution?

James,
Sorry I am so lengthy. The problem is that with the technical support guy on line, when the Mouse button 4 event occurred I described to the tech that I was pushing and pulling the mouse from the back end to avoid touching the buttons on the side and every time I rolled the mouse a few inches forward the dashboard assigned to mouse button 4 appeared and next when I rolled it back the dashboard disappeared, I rolled it forward and it reappeared and so on. Then the tech wanted me to click on the apple and go into system preferences and as my cursor touched the file menu to get to the preferences that menu dropped without me left clicking the mouse. As I passed over edit and view they just dropped down.
What do you make of that? I am presently running OSX leopard without my printer and scanner installed. If I see no problem in two days, I will plug in the printer and install it. Then after that the scanner and see if the problem happens. I will follow your suggestions about relearning the mouse though.

Epiphany and non-working back/foward mouse buttons

Hi guys. I checked out and used the following wiki page to get my back/foward mouse buttons to work. It didn't work.
https://wiki.archlinux.org/index.php/Al … ns_Working
I have a Logitech M510 mouse. The back/foward buttons work in Chrome, Firefox and Midori but not Epiphany. How can I get them to work? I tried the following:
Thumb Buttons - Forward and Back
Note: The following maybe redundant depending on whether xev detects all your mouse buttons correctly (functions can be mapped on a per-app basis) or you want to change the default behaviour.
To do this we need to map keystrokes to the desired mouse buttons and install xvkbd and xbindkeys.
# pacman -S xvkbd xbindkeys
In most modern applications which use back/forward features, XF86Back is mapped to back and XF86Forward is mapped to forward by default. On most MX mice the thumb buttons resolve to 8 & 9. If your mouse is different, check button numbers using xev and replace the numbers used in the example (b:8 & b:9).
So if you have an MX mouse you would create the file ~/.xbindkeysrc, containing:
# Mouse Buttons
"xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[XF86Back]""
m:0x0 + b:8
"xvkbd -xsendevent -text "\[XF86Forward]""
m:0x0 + b:9
Now to test... Run the following command and if it works as expected remember to add xbindkeys to .xinitrc or somewhere where it will be executed each time X starts. Also, this should work with Epiphany and Konqueror without any additional configuration or use of imwheel.
Then I tried the xmodmap tweaking and that still didn't work. I'm not sure what to do next. I am starting to use epiphany more and more because firefox formatting isn't accurate on some sites I go to. Epiphany renders it correctly.
When I add the device settings in xorg.conf, it wont allow me to start X. No screens found. My xorg.conf is blank other than what I was shown to put in there from the wiki page. So I'm completly lost.

Looks like this is a known BUG in Epiphany and apprently it's fixed for 3.8. Check https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=337852 for more information.

Disable side mighty mouse button in Windows XP

I have a mighty mouse that I use in bootcamp and the side mouse buttons when hit go to the default command "back in browser." I often hit the buttons accidentally only to find myself "hitting the back button" in firefox accidentally. Is there a way to disable the side mouse buttons when using windows xp bootcamp?

Hi,
I hate this behaviour too. But I found this sw ( http://www.highrez.co.uk/downloads/XMouseButtonControl.htm ), that let you disable fourth button and it works fine. I'd like to see scrolling horizontally in Windows. I know there is a comercial driver, but I'd like some free solution.
Hope this helps.

Why do i have to keep clicking my left mouse button to make the program work it just stops and if left click it starts working

Why do i have to keep clicking my left mouse button to make the program work it just stops and if left click it starts working. I'v only just started to use this program and It's no good at all if I go to a website and click a button I have to keep clicking it to finish what its doing.

hello jeffsprig, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once?

DoDragDrop oddity with Right Mouse Button

Hi all,
More experimentation - today with Drag & Drop.
Everything seems fine when performing this with the left mouse button, but when initiating this from WPF
with the right mouse button it appears to trigger the PreviewDrop event on the originating object.
I've tried intercepting QueryContinueDragHandler, which is fired and is having an Action set of Continue - all to no avail.
Much time with google shows no examples of people using the right mouse button with DoDragDrop, and a single query on this forum in September with someone having a similar problem. No replies to that thread - hopeing for more luck today!
So, has anyone successfully initiated a system based Drag/Drop using the right mouse button? In this case I'm working with a ListView, but I suspect that is fairly irrelevant.
Events occuring with Right Mouse Button depressed (and dragging a small way) are:
Call to: System.Windows.DragDrop.DoDragDrop
Callback: DropSource_ContinueDragEventHandler
Callback: DropTarget_PreviewDragEnter
Callback: DropSource_ContinueDragEventHandler
Callback: DropTarget_PreviewDrop
With the Left Mouse Button:
Call to: System.Windows.DragDrop.DoDragDrop
Callback: DropSource_ContinueDragEventHandler
Callback: DropTarget_PreviewDragEnter
Callback: DropSource_ContinueDragEventHandler
Callback: DropSource_ContinueDragEventHandler
Callback: DropSource_ContinueDragEventHandler
etc...
Anyone aware of any issues in this area?
Thanks,
Glyn
PS: The behaviour is different if dragging something from another application / desktop to a drop target, so it appears to be related to the originating side of things. ie, there is no problem when dragging an object from the desktop or similar.

Hmm - seem to have found the problem - it is related to the ContinueDragEventHandler!
Here is a suitable handler for dealing with Left & Right mouse button drags
You can activate it using:
DragDrop.AddQueryContinueDragHandler(this, QueryContinueDragHandler);
private void QueryContinueDragHandler(Object source, QueryContinueDragEventArgs e)
    e.Handled = true;
    // Check if we need to bail
    if (e.EscapePressed)
        e.Action = DragAction.Cancel;
        return;
    // Now, default to actually having dropped
    e.Action = DragAction.Drop;
    if ((e.KeyStates & DragDropKeyStates.LeftMouseButton) != DragDropKeyStates.None)
        // Still dragging with Left Mouse Button
        e.Action = DragAction.Continue;
    else if ((e.KeyStates & DragDropKeyStates.RightMouseButton) != DragDropKeyStates.None)
        // Still dragging with Right Mouse Button
        e.Action = DragAction.Continue;

[SOLVED] [Gnome 3] Move/resize with alt+mouse button not working

Hi,
Anyone have any ideas why I can't move or resize windows in Gnome 3 with the alt key + mouse button?
From what I've read it should be possible to do this in Gnome 3, or have they removed it?
The alt key works fine for other tasks, like alt+f4. By looking at xev the keyboard seems to generate a correct alt key as well:
KeyPress event, serial 32, synthetic NO, window 0x2200001,
root 0x15d, subw 0x0, time 74162047, (-380,478), root:(2169,522),
state 0x0, keycode 64 (keysym 0xffe9, Alt_L), same_screen YES,
XLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XmbLookupString gives 0 bytes:
XFilterEvent returns: False
Both the middle and the right mouse button works fine for other stuff, like pasting and opening menus.
Anyone have any ideas?

I suffer the same problems. metacity is already installed. Any idea what else I might look for?
And did it reactivate Alt+right-click to resize?
For geoffm and anyone who stumbles across this, as per http://unix.stackexchange.com/questions … dows-again, you used to be able to use the gconf editor, but now it's (from the command line)
gsettings set org.gnome.desktop.wm.preferences resize-with-right-button true
This nearly did my head in back when it changed.. now I just have to find out how to change the behaviour that seems to have cropped up in latest gnome 3.10 update, where you have to click the _left_ mouse button to finish/stop the resize.. Quite annoying

I used to be able to open links in a new tab by clicking my middle mouse button, but now that I've updated it to the most recent update it doesn't work anymore. How do I fix this? I really love that feature. It works in IE and Chrome but not Mozilla.

Ok, I used to be able to open links up in a new Tab using my middle mouse button. However, I updated firefox with the automatic Updates on the 26th of October and now I no longer can open links with my middle mouse button. Why? I use this feature just about every time I go searching on the internet so I really would like it back. I couldn't find anything that it was related to in the options so I turn this over to you guys.

Do you have that problem when running in the Firefox SafeMode? <br />

Logitech mouse buttons not working in photoshop cc 2014

logitech mouse buttons not working in photoshop cc 2014 winds 8.1. Is this a common problem?
I have updated the latest drivers and have a few buttons programmed with keyboard shortcuts that used to work in previous versions of Photoshop but don't work now.
Scrolling with mouse in bridge stopped working in cc butI see it is now working.
any ideas?

Many Photoshop extensions are not compatible with Photoshop CC 2014 for Adobe removed support for Flash Panels in CC 2014. Many extensions panels are flash based. Check with the developer to see if their blendmein extension works with CC 2014.
Adobe does not maintain Photoshop so it backward compatible with prior versions of Photoshop. This brakes things like action scripts plugins extensions etc. Keep old version of Photoshop installed....

Photoshop CC doesn't recognize the right mouse button of my Wacom Intuos pen tablet, how do I solve this?

For some reason photoshop CC doesn't respond to the right mouse button that is on my tablet pen.
It's strange because it does work for illustrator CC, so why would photoshop CC not respond to it?
Anyhow, help please!
I have a wacom intuos pen tablet.

I checked my settings and they´ve always been like this:
So that's not it.

Mouse buttons and keyboard randomly stop responding on secondary display

Hey,
I'm facing this weird problem after a recent upgrade to Snow Leopard:
In about half of the cases I'm switching to application windows on a secondary/external display the mouse buttons and Macbook keyboard are unresponsive. I have to keep clicking/pressing for some time or have to switch between applications to get them working, until they'll fail again after some time.
I tested it with two different external displays with VGA and DVI adapter, different screen resolutions, I tested the mouse and mouse software, both keyboard and mouse work fine with the same applications moved to the primary laptop screen, trackpad works fine too.
This occurred after the upgrade to Snow Leopard on a 2008 unibody Macbook. Updates to 10.6.2 didn't solve the problem.
I'd be happy if anyone could help me with this issue.
Thanks

You do not provide the full model number but if it is an AMD processor you are seeing the start of video issues that plague that series. The freeze is caused by bad video memory which is a part of the video card in turn part of the motherboard. I have been getting a high percentage of people who do not respond back to posts so I am not going to write everything about your issue; it could be a book. I am happy to help further if you have any questions. There are some repair options but at the end of the day, you might want to consider a new laptop.
