Mapping Shift/Control/Alt to mouse buttons...

[Keensteel]

I have a Logitech MX518 mouse and I would like to map the 4 and 5 mouse buttons (left thumb position for both) to Shift and Control. Can someone help me accomplish this?

Use the Logitech SetPoint software that came with your mouse: http://www.logitech.com/en-us/428/187

I used the SetPoint software to assign Shift and Control to buttons 4 & 5. The Shift and Control mouse buttons work out of game but while in game the buttons do not function? Any help?

Googled a bit more and came across this: http://forums.logitech.com/t5/Mice-a...to/td-p/550702

Here's the link and some instructions.

Download SetPoint, download UberOptions, TURN OFF GAME DETECTION in the Mouse Gaming Options tab (it's mutually exclusive with Application Specific Button Settings as far as I can tell, although nothing tells you as that), go to Advanced Settings and add/configure your game. Also, don't be concerned if when you change a button to a modifier key it shows up as "ctrl+" with nothing after it. It's still treating it like you hit Ctrl and then whatever else ingame; If I have something ingame bound to ctrl+5 and I hit my mousebutton 4 and keyboard key 5, it acfivates it.
