117765-mouse-buttons-and-being-left-handed

== Content ==
			
I've managed to get my sister to play Wildstar. She's loving it so far as much as the game itself goes, but I'm regularly getting an earful of frustration from her.
 
She has the left and right buttons swapped on her OS so that the right mouse button is select and left is context menu. This makes sense, because using the mouse left-handed, her index finger is on the "select" mouse button.
 
It seems that Wildstar doesn't honour the OS mouse settings. So she is used to using her index finger to select stuff, but in Wildstar, she has to remember to swap over and use the other button. Once she's used to it in game, when she quits, she has to swap over again. It's driving her mad.
 
I spent quite a lot of time looking for a setting, but couldn't find anything to swap the buttons over. Am I missing something? Or is Wildstar hard coded so that *everyone* has to select stuff in game (and click on buttons etc) with the left mouse button?
 
Any help appreciated!

Don't know if you've looked, I don't use it myself, but could this add-on help? If it has the option to rebind selection at all, that is.

Otherwise I could only suggest you try some of the deadlock add-ons and play the game with less mouse selection and more key bind interaction. Perhaps you could try obtaining a different mouse or driver that will not be overridden? Might be hard to get a left handed one that fits that criteria. I'm sure someone would probably have a fix for this in a little while anyhow.
 
Sorry I couldn't help more!

			you know it's weird, I'm left handed, but I've always found mouse easier to use on the right. My dominant hand can then do all of that complex button playing on my keyboard :D

			I'm not sure what the problem is, I just tried it on my laptop (same as hers), and it seems to work fine. We both run lockdown, so I just need to compare settings. I wish I'd sorted it when I was at her house, much harder over skype!

I've narrowed the problem down to the AHK script you need to run to get Lockdown to rebind mouse clicks to buttons.
 
keybindfreedom does work, but will activate the button bound to the mouse button when you are clicking on things in game. That is something Lockdown never does, it never sends a keypress when the mouse is released. I'll have a word with the Lockdown developer.
