How to ASSIGN FLIP 3D to yout MIDDLE MOUSE BUTTON


Recommended Posts

EDIT:

DOWNLOAD X-Mouse Button Control 1.28 they have a 32 bit and a 64 bit version. Once installed click the middle mouse dropdown, select "FLIP 3d *Vista only", it's that easy.

OR

the alternate way is to create a flip3d shortcut and map it using a mouse configuration program that works with your mouse. I did the following..

1. Right click on your desktop and select New and then Shortcut.

2. Copy and paste "RunDll32 DwmApi #105" (without the qoutes) into the location box and hit Next.

3. Enter in a name for your shortcut and hit Finish.

4. Copy/Cut and Paste your new shortcut where ever you want.

Now download IntelliPoint 6.1, from here and install it. I have the most generic non Microsoft of OPTICAL MOUSE and it still worked. So I can confirm intellipoint works on generic non MS mouses. Once you install Intellipoint, click the "Microsoft Mouse" icon it created on your desktop to launch Intellipoint. Click "wheel button" dropdown and select "Custom" at the very bottom of the drop down. Now it will give you an option to browse for a file, browse to the shortcut file we made earlier, and click apply. FLIP 3d IS NOW APPLIED TO YOUR MIDDLE MOUSE BUTTON!! and might i say it's very useful. Enjoy!

This is nice because I have a button on my mouse that does NOTHING, and the icon for it has two windows infront of each other, looks like it was made for Flip3D..

-Edit-

Doesn't work, alternativly, you can download a small app called HotkeyP and use that to bind Flip3D.

A Logitech? I have that same button on my Logitech MX510. I think it brings up the desktop if you have the Logitech software installed.

I'm in the same boat as you. The intellipoint software didn't work with my mouse. Everytime I started the app it told me to install an MS mouse or connect my bluetooth MS mouse. I ignored the prompts and went to the configuration screen but any changes I made (ie. setting middle click to 'instant preview') had no effect.

The app worked fine when I plugged in an old MS optical mouse.

Does anyone know if it's possible to make my own shortcut for quick view?

i edited my original post there is an easier way, try it.

Sorry, my post wasn't clear. What I meant was, is there a way to use the hotkeyP (or any app that can bind shorcuts to the mouse) to launch Instant Viewer, not Flip3D. The app (Instant Viewer) is already on my computer so there must be some other way to launch it.

hotkeyp did exactly what i wanted thanks, i set it to 3d flip when the left and right buttons are clicked at the same time ^_^ thats the only event that doesnt do anything on my mouse (hurray for only have the simple 3 buttons)

IntelliPoint drivers don't work with PS/2 mouses...

what are you talking about? I have my Microsoft Wireless IntelliMouse Explorer 2.0 connected via the PS/2 port and the newest IntelliPoint drivers work flawlessly :blink:

I think he means an old roll ball mouse, i think only optical mouses are supported, I could be wrong though.

    • UK funds £60M AI labs to challenge US tech dominance with open-source models by Paul Hill The UK government has awarded £60 million to Oxford University and University College London to help keep the country in the AI race by focusing on open-source, low-hardware alternatives. This is in stark contrast to the expensive, closed-source, and high-hardware-requirement models being created in the United States and elsewhere. The money will be shared among two new academic research labs over six years to help them redesign the fundamental mathematics and architectures of AI to help the UK reduce its reliance on a handful of US tech firms. Commenting on the development, AI Minister Kanishka Narayan said: Initially, the government planned to fund just one lab with a £40 million investment, but with this update, two labs will now get access to a larger pool of funds. The labs are expected to invest in the top AI researchers at every career stage, with £2 million per lab being set aside for hiring at least ten doctoral students. The government hopes that this will grow the UK’s talent in the field of AI. The labs are also expected to work closely with the leaders in British AI research, such as the Alan Turing Institute and UKRI’s AI research hubs. This will allow the various teams to collaborate and create new solutions faster than they could alone. This development is pretty interesting for a number of reasons, chiefly that it could create a long-term challenge for US tech firms if these labs successfully scale these open-source architectures that bypass the proprietary ecosystems. It could also give British businesses and public sector organizations access to AI features without paying high licensing fees to foreign providers or needing to invest in specialized server infrastructure.
    • If I were them, I'm gonna hold out until the prices of these semiconductor parts normalize. $1,049 for a ~5 year old hardware is DoA, more so for gamers. On a deeper note, if Steam Machine is priced like this, we are soo effed up for the next gen Xbox console and PS6. With great AAA titles releasing at the end of the year, this just creates more demand...and more tears for me. Lol.
    • I suspect one reason its hard to justify subsidising is that it's not a locked down device like a traditional console is. In this climate sadly if it was a "good deal" you'd get people hoarding them for anything but gaming. The Lenovo Legion Go 2 with the Ryzen Z2 Extreme is £1300 here ($1720) for some context on how other SteamOS like devices are now priced. I got the older Z1 Extreme model for £300 with a dock, just shows how insane prices have got recently.
