mousewheel scroll -> "TAB"

[Rabbuni]

hey there from germany,

i just want to make the following work:

when i SCROLL the mousewheel (NOT PRESS THAT BUTTON!!), i want to emulate the keystroke "tab".


im gonna use it ingame, so i dont want to have any delay.

my logitech mouseware ("setpoint" isnt capable of that.


hope u can help me, im totally new to this!!


regards

The mousewheel isn't captured and games normally work on a level system api you can emulate with special drivers in place.

ok thx, but i still dont know what to do..

i can tell you what i did in the past: i used the program "girder" and someone wrote a macro which enabled me to do as i inititally posted. but i cant use the freeware of that prog under vista. my OP.

ok thx, but i still dont know what to do..

I don't know if EventGhost can do it, but when I need to remap mouse/keyboard buttons functionality I use freeware Autohotkey.

Example script to map mousewheeldown -> tab

Code: Select all

WheelDown::Send, {tab}

Some games need a bit more complicated script but there's help in Autohotkeys forum.
