How to program mouse buttons in IGEL OS?


Hello all. Is there any way to program mouse buttons in the OS yet? When I look at the input area of setup, the only options are for Left-handed, Emulate 3 button, hide cursor and a few performance options. Does the OS support mice with 5/7/12 extra buttons?

Hello Shane, never tried it beside some 3D Mouses tbh. But the only thing that comes to my mind is on how to use them, I guess you are using a Remote Desktop / VDI Architecture to connect to?


using Citrix, yes.


If a special mouse is in use, and only there, you might check if a Native USB redirection helps.

Since I guess that the Extra Buttons need to get used on Citrix side, right?


Yeah – the client has buttons mapped for cut/paste on an ergonomic mouse…

to be used in the Citrix session.

Thanks for the responses Sebastien.
