** Description changed: - The folloing section of community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto is ambiguous + https://help.ubuntu.com/community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto + + The following section of community/ManyButtonsMouseHowto is ambiguous about whether many actions per button or many buttons per action (or both!) are disallowed: - - = Limitations = - Note that xorg X Input system is not able to bind a combination of more than one mouse button to a certain action. For example, it is not possible to bind left-clicking while simultaneously scrolling up to a specific action. Only binding of one action to each button is allowed, except when combining them with keyboard modifier keys (Ctrl, Alt, Super,...) - + = Limitations = + Note that xorg X Input system is not able to bind a combination of more than one mouse button to a certain action. For example, it is not possible to bind left-clicking while simultaneously scrolling up to a specific action. Only binding of one action to each button is allowed, except when combining them with keyboard modifier keys (Ctrl, Alt, Super,...) The first sentence suggests each action can be bound to only on action. The second sentence doesn't make a lot of sense.. are we to think of binding actions 'left click' and 'scroll up' to a third action?? The third sentence suggests a button can only have one action bound to it. If I knew which was right, I'd fix it myself, but unfortunately I don't.. If someone can respond authoratitively here, I'm happy to go change the text.
