Evoluent Vertical Mouse 3

• Homepage: evoluent.com

You can use the following command to remap the buttons:

xinput set-button-map <device-id> <button1> <button2> <button3> ... <buttonN>

The <device-id> is shown in the xinput list output - you can use the name as a string or the id number. You can query the actual button state using xinput query-state <device-id>.

The mouse has following button-ids:

See Remapping mouse buttons on what buttons X11 recognizes.

According to this the default configuration (xinput set-button-map <device-id> 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9) would give you middle click on the wheel button and right-click on the middle finger. The ring finger button would be for special use as well as the thumb button.

I for myself prefer having the middle-button on the middle finger and the right-click on the ring finger. So I mapped 8⇒3 and 3⇒2 and I also mapped 9⇒8 and 2⇒9 to have the wheel button and thumb button for special use in some programs which make use of additional buttons. My final xinput line looks like this:

#                       input id: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
xinput set-button-map <device-id> 1 9 2 4 5 6 7 3 8

You could also map 9⇒6 and 2⇒7 to have the 2 additional buttons emulate Wheel left and Wheel right:

#                       input id: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
xinput set-button-map <device-id> 1 7 2 4 5 8 9 3 6
