As anyone tried to use the extra buttons on their mouse/keyboard for key binds to get work done or is just a meme? I'm currently getting a thesis written via Scrivener and am open to any new ideas that increase productivity.

I'm thinking to do the same thing. I have few repetitive tasks that I could macro and increase my productivity.

I have tesoro shrike at work bidded with enter, escape, tabulator and ctrl+V. Inreased productivity? I can tell by 5% (depends on tasks).

I'm trying to think what someone at least 90% of the time dealing with word processing would need which binds: I would think crtl+c, crtl+v, enter and tab.

I use a Roccat Tyon and have a bunch of buttons and button combinations bound to different things. It is annoying using regular mice for me now. Which kinda sucks since the Tyon isn't a mouse I'd recommend, so once it dies I'll probably look for something else. But I do think mice with a lot of extra buttons are awesome.

my G500 is a god send with 3DS Max and other stuff.

What if I want to a mouse for mainly gaming but it also just happens to be good at productivity?
>>
I use my G600 for web browsing a lot. Buttons bound for previous tab, next tab (I use these constantly), refresh, back, forward, new tab, close tab, undo closed tab, scroll to top, and scroll to bottom. This thing is amazing for web browsing, and I'd buy it again even if I quit gaming just for how much it speeds up other applications.
>>
>>56426679
Get back to writing your thesis and stop shitposting about pointless things
>>
MX Master with 3x5 gesture binds. Add in thumb wheel and back/forward for more shit.

hijacking this thread; anyone have any recommendations for a mouse with a non-shit middle mouse button? Pretty much for my past 4-5 mice, the first thing to fail is the middle click, frequently not registering or registering multiple clicks. Currently on my second Razer deathadder (yea, i know), and its starting to get fucky. I use my middle click almost as much as i do the left click...

I have a copy button, a paste button, a "back" button for browser, a forward button for browsing, a lock screen. I can't imagine any shortcuts that would help with major productivity, but these are all convenient when I'm laying back in my chair browsing

G600 with browser shortcuts is a perfect shitposting companion.
>>
PgUp and PgDown to left side buttons and Ctrl+W (close tab) and alt+F4 (close window) for the right side buttons.
Both implemented via xbindkeys and xvkbd. Very comfy for browsing.

i have that shit, bought it in a sale like 20 euros. For that price is not that bad.
Keyboard is good enough and kinda feels like a mechanical cherry red but the mouse is shit as fuck. both feel kinda cheap.

>>56430495
As someone who bought a second g600 just to have one in each location I have the "shift" button bound to middle click. It's fucking amazing.

What a shit LieSlacker article.

Been using shortcuts since year 2000, the whole Adobe CS suite, MS Office...

Plus a Nostromo gamepad for 3D software and Final Cut, they have shit loads of shortcuts that make your life easier.
>>
I use the macro-buttons on my keyboard for that. Works like a charm.
And that is just about the only reason to buy 'gamer' stuff - macro buttons for long/complicated commands you do often...

Does someone here have a mionix naos 5000? Looks nice for the price. I just want a big mouse that doesn't cost 80€..
