Mouse and function button Control

Post by luxsparks » Tue Aug 20, 2019 8:16 pm

Hi All
I have been using Qcad for a few months now on a Mac Book Pro (10.14.6) and in the main I'm very impressed I would really like to use a mouse where I can add my own shortcuts eg middle button is (zp) or similar. In the same method is there anyway you can edit function buttons on the mouse or F1 to F12 to my own favourite functions.
Lastly is there a lisp function (auto cad) or similar?
Thank you again so much and if I can help please let me know

If you have a configurable mouse then you should also have the software to it to customize the button etc.. QCAD has currently a few mouse related navigation settings but it can't program your mouse button.

Yes, you can do that. Check Menu/Edit/Application Preferences/General/Tool settings

Not sure but I don't think so. Maybe anybody else has a more precisely answer to that question.
Work smart, not hard: QCad Pro
Win10/64, QcadPro, QcadCam version: Current.

For that last I presume Scripts in Javascript are the Qcad analogues.
