Mouse Cursor Use

Post by terryaaa »

Has any one mapped the mouse (cursor) functionality. even if you had to hot key in and out of this function.
I once saw this being done (with a SpaceTraveler in Linux) and assumed it was a normal function of the software. So I didn't ask how he got there.
Have an application where this could be handy. No need to carry extra mouse around.

Most recently used distros: Ubuntu, Mint, SUSE

Thanks;
Terry

You posted to a Windows forum. Are you asking about Windows, or Linux?

Yes; sorry about that. I started out in the Linux section. not sure how I got in to Windows.
However, in the big picture I,m sure there will be Windows machines.
I think getting an idea on how to do either will allow my guys to figure it out. (the other)

Thanks;

This link has such a subject: mouse/keyboard/joystick driver for windows.
It might be of help.

SpaceNavigator Driver - Mouse Joystick Keyboard

It doesn't function (yet) with the pilot.

There is source material (all files) available. I hope you can put these to good use! Good luck! (and keep us updated!) ;-)
