Help.... node editing...

Post by RoutnAbout »

Instead of using the trace feature, I use polyline to manually trace the features of picture to create components in Aspire.
I've always used the node editing tool features, and I love the way I can zoom in and out with the wheel on my mouse.....
But is there away to remap the buttons (left, right, wheel click button) to 3 of the 5 node features in the context menu?
Or possible another type of mouse,pointing device that will allow me to do this?
Am wondering what others have thought about this....or are using..

If you've got a Logitech mouse then you can do that using the SetPoint software that comes with it (or download from Logitech).

Otherwise I've done similiar things with other programs using a free scripting tool called AutoIt. I expect there are others.

Hey, thanks! I'm downloading set point now. Sounds like great functionality to have available. :D
