Customizing the mouse buttons

Changing the function of a button to perform a specific task.

1. Open SetPoint (Start > Programs > Logitech > Mouse and Keyboard > Mouse and Keyboard Settings). If you do not have SetPoint installed you can download it on our G5 Downloads Page.

2. Once SetPoint opens, click the My Mouse tab on the top of the screen. You will see the G5 Laser Mouse listed under Select Mouse in the Mouse Button Settings side tab (shown below).

   

3. Choose the mouse button you wish to customize in the Select Button field.

   

4. Now select the task you want the button to perform under Select Task. You can also click “Help” to find detailed descriptions of the available tasks for your device.

   

   Certain options may generate a sub-section to allow you to make further customizations. In the example images above, we selected Keystroke Assignment. Keystroke Assignment generates an option to allow you to enter the keystroke you want the programmed button to perform within a selected program.
