Is there any way to remap mouse buttons or add them as a hotkeys? I find it very hard to press MMB to drag a slider and i'd rather do it with holding a key and drag while my mouse on that parameter.

I don't think there's a way within Houdini, but you can do something like this with a macro app. Autohotkey on Windows, for example, lets you remap any mouse button to a keyboard button.

If you are on Windows, install Autohotkey and use this script:

This will remap the mouse middle button to the grave accent button (only within Houdini). You can change that to any key or combination of keys you wish.

What about for Macs?

Forum member Midphase made a video about this a while back (I don't know if it still applies):

Hi! I've been desperately trying to figure this out to help my tennis elbow, but when I enter the code I get an error. Screenshots attached of the error and the code I have in notepad. What do I need to change?

thanks,
