Hi Tom cc list

Yes, horizontal coordinates change, but not vertical changes, eg 
in the (xxx,yyy) root:(xxx,yyy) only the xxx change

Well I'm not good at Z axis config either (I just leave it off &
ignore it on other mice with scroll wheel), & I ve never had a 4 key mouse
to solve (happily).

But I dont think this is like a complex quad button mouse as such;
it's more like 2 tools in one box (dependent on physical mode switch):
simple 2 key mouse on ums & presenter on kbd.

I'm aware of how to use xmodmap to map key strokes (& button combos)
but xmodmap doesnt map the vertical scroll.

So thanks for your ideas, appreciated :-)  but not the solution.
