kaidomac, can you zoom in and out with the jog dial in photoshop?? that might be kinda cool
Yes, you can. Anything that you can access via keyboard shortcuts in Photoshop, you can program into the ShuttleXpress. My primary work right now is in Illustrator, which has a similar shortcut structure to Photoshop. I have the buttons programmed for Undo, select Mouse Pointer, select Paintbrush tool, deselect object, and Delete. Both jog dials are set to zoom in and zoom out for convenience.
With the ShuttleXpress, you basically have five buttons and two jog wheels. The interior jog wheel, the one with the depression for your finger, is freely rotatable, meaning that you can keep spinning it as much as you want to. The outside jog wheel, the rubber ring around the interior jog wheel, is limited to about 180 degrees, so you can't spin it past about half way around. The exterior jog wheel also has more control. You can program 7 "steps" into it depending upon how far you turn it, as well as the transitions between the steps. Here are my settings for Firefox:
Button 1: Jump to the beginning of the page
Button 2: Open the Find search bar
Button 3: Jump to the Google search bar at the top right
Button 4: Jump to the address bar at the top
Button 5: Jump to the end of the page
Inside jog: page up/page down
Outside jog: arrow up/arrow down
Using the outside jog dial, I can slowly scroll up and down through webpages. Using the inside jog dial, I can quickly scroll up and down through webpages. Using the buttons, I can jump to the beginning and end of the document quickly, as well as access the search, address, and Google bars. It's a really handy tool to have and has the perfect amount of buttons, imo.
