Yes they do, but it won't let me reprogram left, middle or right mouse buttons with Aspire

I purchased a Logitech gaming mouse, and for the life of me I cannot figure out how to program a macro that will click on a specific screen coordinate or otherwise choose the line tool based on a different method. How do you do this??????? If there's already a keyboard shortcut, no problem, but for a tool that doesn't have a shortcut, I can see no way to choose that tool. please please please help.

You can't without using a scripting program which is then called by the mouse macro. That can either be a 3rd party one or Logitechs own scripting/SDK system. There is more information on the Logitech site - https://community.logitech.com/s/topic/ ... 9797161532

It's often simpler to write a gadget in VCarve/Aspire and then use the built-in keyboard shortcut system to call that.

The shortcut for the last used drawing tool (in V9) is the spacebar.
