The foot pedal emulates a mouse in conjunction with up to 4 modifier keys,
ALT, CONTROL, SHIFT and ESCAPE.
Functions available are Left Click, Double Click, Right Click, Cursor Up,
Cursor Down, Cursor Left, Cursor Right, Wheel Scroll Up, Wheel Scroll Down, Middle Click, Page Up, Page Down, Window Select, Close window, Minimise window and Null (define an option that does nothing)
-
Many foot pedals come with software, often MS Windows only, which allows you to program the pedals to perform some function or other, Footmouse does away with the proprietary software and allows you to assign Mouse commands to a pedal or a pedal with a modifier key. All functions can be assigned as you require.
Designed principally to help people who have difficulty operating a Mouse but able to operate a foot pedal.
By its very nature, moving about the screen is slow compared with using a mouse but it does the job, if you can't use a mouse.
Note: new VEC Infinity in-USB3 foot pedal not supported.
