Logitech scroll wheel mouse - no button options

[Nostromo]

Hi,


For the use in Blender I need to reprogram my logitech wheel mouse (2 buttons, one scroll wheel).

When I go to preferences/mouse I am not given any options for buttons, just double click speed and the other secondary things.

How can I, for example, reprogram the wheel, so when I click I won't get the widget/dashboard area?

Have you downloaded Logitech Control Centre (go to Logitech site)? The latest version is quite good, lots of options for the buttons.

I did.

Then it asked me for a "Logitech unifying receiver" and told me that it was not plugged in.

It sounds like a piece of hardware.

When I looked on my mac under "Logitech" it only showed me the Logitech control center installer, and, after I ran it, the Logitech unifying software, but nothing else.

After installing, I could not find anything that allowed me to program the buttons.

Yes, the unifying receiver is the wireless USB dongle thing (my name for it is so much better!). I have a Bluetooth mouse, so don't have one. When I installed LCC it just appeared I'm system preferences at the bottom no trouble. Don't know what to suggest I'm afraid.

Logitech's software does not recognize the Logitech mouse.

I found the solution in Expose where I disabled the scroll wheel - now it's available in Blender to navigate.
