X-Mouse Button Control supercharges your mouse

X-Mouse Button Control is a free application that allows you to customise your mouse buttons in a variety of different ways. You can give your mouse different functions depending on the software you’re using or tell it to change functions depending on the window the pointer is in. For instance you could assign volume control to the mouse’s scroll wheel whenever the pointer is in your media player’s window. This application turns your mouse into a versatile tool that saves time and keystrokes.

Get things just the way you like them

X-Mouse Button Control is powerful and versatile but it can be a little intimidating to use at first. There are lots of customisation options and only a limited amount of guidance. However the many menus are actually quite self-explanatory and once you’ve played around with it a few times you’ll see that it’s quite simple at heart although it provides a lot of options. Getting your mouse set up exactly as you want it might take a little while but once you’re done you’ll be amazed at the amount of time you can save.

The perfect tool for control freaks

If you use your keyboard a lot and would love to be able to do more things with just mouse clicks X-Mouse Button Control is worth checking out. It’s an indie project and looks like it but it’s a very valuable tool.
