5 years ago with some trial and error i finally got the 'forward' and 'backward' button up and working ...
when i reboot system it does not work ... i need to open the app and then try it ... some time it works some time it doesn't ... i log off and log back in ... it doesn't work ...
How can i get it to work always ?
Hi,
I am running Deepin Linux 15.7 on my laptop ... i use a vertical mouse with additional forward and backward buttons ... things were working great ... all 5 buttons perfectly working as expected.
Out of the blue the 'forward' and 'backward' buttons stopped working ... i checked with my OS team but they were of no help ... probably too busy as i was the only one seems to have been affected and not many use a 5 button vertical mouse.
In an effort to restore functionality i started looking for some help online, that's when i came across your project. I installed it quite sometime back but without clear help i couldn't get it to work ...
today after another update from my OS my scroll_click button started acting up ... so i got back to your application and tried another time ... and to my surprise i seem to have successfully detected all the buttons of my vertical mouse.
with some trial and error i finally got the 'forward' and 'backward' button up and working ... but i can't seem to know how to restore the default functions of the 'Scroll_Button'
the following are some the default functions of the scroll_button i am hooked on to ...
Close a tab by middle-clicking on the tab
Open a link in a new tab by middle-clicking on the link (this also works in the address bar's drop-down menu and back and forward buttons)
Open a new instance or window of a program by middle-clicking its taskbar icon
Close a window by hovering over its taskbar icon, then middle-clicking the thumbnail that pops up
can you please help me with the key combinations that will restore the above default 'scroll_button' functions ?
thanks.
