46 | <para>Multi-button mice can be used to their full potential by mapping
|
---|
47 | the additional buttons to X button events. Wheel mice are a common example.
|
---|
48 | The ordinary ones contain two buttons, and a scroll wheel that doubles as
|
---|
49 | a third button. As far as <application>X</application> is concerned, there
|
---|
50 | are 5 buttons as it counts the 'scroll up' and 'scroll down' functions
|
---|
51 | (internally they are buttons). Here is an example 'InputDevice' section for
|
---|
52 | a typical PS/2 wheel mouse:</para>

62 |
|

63 | <para>Button assignments differ for every mouse type. On more exotic
|
---|
64 | mice, you may find that the rocker wheel buttons are 6 and 7. Simply
|
---|
65 | add those values to the <option>ZAxisMapping</option> option, and set
|
---|
66 | the <option>Buttons</option> option appropriately to enable side to
|
---|
67 | side scrolling. Additional information on button assignment can be
