Description

I chose a mouse with 5 buttons in the preferences/input devices. I use a Logitech mouse with 5 buttons and the wheel, of course.

Is it possible to give the buttons 4 and 5 useful functions like paging back or forward in the browser?

Change History (4)

After a quick check, looks like WebPositive never receives events for mouse buttons 4 & 5, at least with my mouse in KVM. My guess is that this needs to first be implemented in input_server somewhere?

input_server work is already done.

You can set your mouse to 5 buttons in Input preferences and check there that it works.

I'm not sure where you checked in WebPositive, but the mouse handling for this will probably be in BWebView which is in WebKit sourcecode and not in WebPositive sources.
