Hi all,

I want to map certain buttons to fn + [F#].

However, Steermouse only shows command, shift, option, and control as selectable options.

When I go to input key --> other and press fn + f12 to try and assign that command to a mouse button, my dashboard shows, but it's not picked up by steermouse.

In fact, when I press fn by itself it's not picked up in steermouse.

I'm uaing the MX Revolution mouse.

Steermouse 4.0.2

Leaving the fact that mapping a key combinatin to a mouse button just seems strange, does SteerMouse have the option to map an application to a button? You could just map the Dashboard Application located at /Applications/Dashboard

It has its uses for gaming (WoW, for example).
