New mouse thumb buttons

[jmc92]

It seems what I was looking for is this,

Code: Select all

#MaxHotkeysPerInterval 100    
Loop
XButton1::Space
Loop
XButton1 Up::send {Space Up}

Is there a way of making Xbutton1 act as though I'm holding the space bar so long as I'm holding it in?

Do you mean mapping left and right arrow on the keyboard? That's fairly easy. For example:

Code: Select all

!Right::Space

If you mean mapping the new buttons on the mouse, that could be tricky. You might see if XButton1 or XButton2 work - with many mouses that is what the fourth or fifth buttons are recognized as.

Otherwise, I know there's a trick to figure out what AHK "sees" when the mouse button is clicked, but I don't remember it off the top of my head.
