Accessing Button Settings

  • 🖱️ Begin by opening the 3Dconnexion Home app and navigating to the 'Buttons' section to access customization options.
  • ⚙️ You can choose between global settings that apply to all applications or enable application-specific settings for tailored customization per app.

Customizing Button Functions

  • 🎯 Buttons can be assigned various functions, including the radial menu (like 'Common Tools'), which is particularly useful in applications such as Blender or Fusion.
  • 🔢 Explore options like the virtual numpad, fast/moderate/slow speed settings, and the ability to open different applications or perform actions within them.
  • ⌨️ Keyboard shortcuts and macros can also be assigned to mouse buttons for streamlined workflows.

Advanced Customization Options

  • 🖱️ The mouse wheel can be assigned custom functions, such as opening the calculator, especially if the middle mouse button function is already assigned elsewhere.
  • 🔄 The option to swap middle and right mouse buttons is available for users accustomed to traditional two-button mice.
  • 🖥️ An on-screen display feature is available, which can show mouse status and functions, typically visible in the taskbar.
