I need to find a way to use the XButton1 and XButton2 with a logitech G9 gaming mouse (not for gaming, but that's beside the point). uberOptions does not work with the Setpoint V5 that works with the G9. Am I out of luck, or is there a way to map the 2 thumb buttons to XButton 1 & XButton 2? I suppose I could remap it to a true F-Key, but the SetPoint software doesn't let me map to anything from F1-12, as you must physically press the key (I think). Anyone ever configure this?

Code:
run notepad.exe "%A_AppData%\Logitech\SetPoint\user.xml"


You have the power... use it wisely.

Thanks. Unfortunately, I think that user.xml only exists with previous versions of Setpoint (versions prior to SetPoint 5.0, which is the version that works with the G9 gaming mouse). I searched every xml file in the Logitech directory, and none were modified after I saved the new settings... I think its saving directly to the mouse, instead of a config file or registry? This is frustrating. I love this mouse, but without the ability to bind the extra buttons I'm gonna have abandon logitech.

OK, I think I've at least come up with a way to use the Logitech G9 Gaming Mouse as a regular 5 button mouse in AHK -- simply go into the profile manager of SetPoint 5, Select your profile, and then set up the XButtons as Generic Button 4 and Generic Button 5 (I had been setting them up as Generic 1 & 2).

This AHK will identify as XButton 1 & XButton 2.
