ALT-look with 3. mousebutton

Oi !

Please let us assign functions to the 3. mousebutton. I would really love to see the function of the "alt" key there so i can look around with just one hand at the mouse.

thanks for listening

I bought a mouse with 7 buttons (two rockers on the sides for thumb and pinky) that came with software to let me configure what those buttons do. I've got the thumb rockers assigned to alt and control, so I can zoom and pan/tilt with one hand. It's done wonders for my RSI problems.

There might be software out there to let you do this kind of thing for any 3-button mouse. That, or you could look into a gamer mouse like I did. What I've got is a Razer Diamondback, which is nice because the key-assignment is done completely in hardware: the mouse acts simultaneously as a USB keyboard and a mouse. Theoretically, I could even assign other SL-specific functions to the pinky buttons, but they're pretty hard to hit... they're there so the mouse works equally well for left- and right-handers, mostly.
