  • OT: Zoom in/out with a Mighty Mouse?

    Posted by Tom Matthies on February 29, 2008 at 9:31 pm

    I use a Shuttle Pro II at home and use the track Zoom in/out function all of the time. At work I use a Mighty Mouse and a Graphire tablet for editing. I’d like to remap the scroll ball on the Mighty Mouse to use it to zoom in and out on my timeline. I use the side to side function on the mouse to scroll back & forward on the timeline. I’d like to use the up/down action on the scroll ball for zooming in/out of my tracks. Is there a way to map this to the mouse? While I can remap the keys on the keyboard, I don’t see options to remap functions to the mouse.
    Thanks,
    Tom

    I replied to that? Bizarre. I thought about it but I didn’t mean to reply. My mind powers are growing ever stronger.

    Sorry it was blank, that’s as far as my powers reach. For now.

    FWIW I think this has come up before and I’m pretty sure you’re sol.

    Yea, I didn’t find anything by doing a search but I thought it still might be something that would be handy and might have been done before. Guess I’ll just have to get another Shuttle Pro for the other system.
    Thanks!

    Apple mouse driver doesn’t support it directly but you can install and use a third party mouse driver to add such support.
