programmable mouse with 4 or 5 buttons

Haitham Elamashety · Dec 11, 2013

in my work i copy and paste a lot from form "textbox" to an excel sheet all what i need is a mouse that can do the following Ctrl+c Ctrl+v alt+tab Ctrl+a and of cours the default two known buttons and the scroll i saw nice things and too fancy things i need the mouse for this purpose only i do not want to spend too much money on options i will not use

so the question is do anyone know and TRIED a mouse can do that ?

i would go for a razer naga hex. it is an excellent mouse. you might also consider a corsair m95.

Cons29 · Dec 11, 2013

can keyboard macros be used?

ryan27968 · Dec 11, 2013

Cons29 :

keyboard macros could work but the point is he wants to use his mouse to do these things.

Cons29 · Dec 11, 2013

was just giving out ideas. if its not acceptable then it's ok

Haitham Elamashety · Dec 11, 2013

i have a very basic dell keyboard some like that

and the point is as ryan27968 said i wont to do it with one hand or with the mouse .

Haitham Elamashety · Dec 11, 2013

razer naga hex and corsair m95 is a brand names i never heard about considering that you are talking about $76.28 for the corsair m95 and $63.98 for the razer naga hex do not you think that we can get another one from a well known brand dude i can`t bay 70 dollars on something that know the word broken or something you know what i am talking about ?

Both Razer and Corsair are very well recognized brands used by all walks of the earth, namely gamers however, on a very large geographical scale. I vouch for both of these brands on a personal level, as I've had nothing but amazing performance and quality from both brands. I own a Razer Naga, however not the Razer Naga Hex. My mouse performs amazing and is overall an amazing mouse. Definitely consider both heavily.

Basically any mouse that has a ton of buttons on them, the so far mentioned Razer Hex and Naga would be good options (pretty much any MMO gaming mouse would). When it comes to mice, Razer are a very respectable brand (The last two mice I have bought have been Deathadders, best mice I'v ever used). Might be a bit off the norm, but the Razer Orbweaver could be a good option.
It isnt a mouse itself, but the idea is that for games you could set hotkeys to the Orbweaver and you remove your hand from the keyboard entirely to it, where there its more "button dense" and more ergonomic.

If your job is pretty much copy/paste or other repetitious tasks it might be a good option.

Corsair is a pretty respectable brand, everything they make across PC hardware is good quality.

The reason why your not seeing names like Dell and HP on products like these is because what your looking for is typically what gamers want, and they dont cater to that market. Besides, Dell would struggle to convince enthusiasts that their stuff is any good, the only Dell products you will find recommended on these forums is their monitors (which are actually very nice) but are again intended for a professional audience.

Razer Orbweaver Mechanical PC Gaming Keypad is the first one i saw but i noticed that it will be too much plus i think it is not usable because i can accidently press any button there is buttons evry ware did you try it or did you know any one that have it ?

manofchalk · Dec 11, 2013

Havent used or know anyone who does.
About accidentally pressing keys on it, I wouldnt worry. It uses Cherry MX Blue mechanical switches, which require a lot more force (50g to be exact) to press down than a membrane switch like what your keyboard would have.

dude i am a righty i use my right hand i just watched some videos they are using it with there left i can not do that

manofchalk · Dec 11, 2013

Yea, the idea is that you use your mouse normally and that the Orbweaver becomes a keyboard replacement with your left hand (this is a gaming peripheral remember, it isnt concerned with anything more than offering a better WASD cluster).
Despite looking like one, it isnt a mouse.

manofchalk :

do you think it will be easy on me to move around with my left hand or should we think about another simpler mouse perhaps a mouse with 5 buttons ?

manofchalk · Dec 11, 2013

I repeat, the Orbweaver is not a mouse. There is no optical/laser sensor down there, moving it will do nothing.

Your right hand is on your mouse, using it as normal, your left is on the Orbweaver, where you have easy access to the keys there.

But anyway, whether getting one in addition to your current setup or changing your current mouse is the better option is up to you.

hahahahaha i feel like an idiot i thought that you were flirting the mouse when you said it was not a mouse
no dude i need to work with one hand i do not wont to move with the mouse and Ctrl + c or v or a i want all in one hand i there a mouse that can do this a mouse that i can make a button of it can copy ''Ctrl+c'' or paste ''Ctrl+v''
do you know what i need do you understand what i am saying ? is there such a thing ???

manofchalk · Dec 11, 2013

Any mouse with thumb buttons can do that, software that comes with it or 3rd party stuff will allow you to bind the buttons to whatever macro's (combination of key press') you want. Its pretty much just a matter of finding one that you like.

So I guess from here, figure out your grip style and find an MMO mouse (these typically have a ton of thumb buttons) that suits.
Before you watch the video, look at your hand and take note of how it is holding the mouse.

manofchalk :

can you suggest a cheap and respectable one ?

manofchalk · Dec 11, 2013

The Razer Naga's
Corsair M95
Logitech G600

The functionality your looking for is only found in the higher end of gaming mice, what you want cant be had for less than $50.
