Keep the mouse shift-state button held, and flick your mouse wheel to the left or right. We probably don't have to explain what our aptly named Reopen Closed Tab and Minimize Window macros do. Except if deleting what you selected was what you wanted. Just remember not to tilt your wheel to the right (where you mapped Delete) in your favorite file manager. The Backspace and Delete mappings on your wheel allow you to correct what you typed by deleting letters to the left or right of the cursor.īackspace is also the equivalent of "go back" in many applications, from your web browser to KODI media center. In other words, from now on, you'll be able to accept or reject any requester that pops up by simply rocking your thumb back or forth!

That's until you realize that, in both Windows and Linux, those keys also control most requesters that appear! Enter is the equivalent of a click on a preselected "OK" button, while Escape is the same as clicking on cancel. Mapping Enter and Escape to your mouse buttons might seem useless at first. Why not map those buttons to something actually useful? And yet, how many times do you scroll horizontally every day? If you're not spending most of your time in Excel, the answer's probably "never". Theoretically, this makes sense: it's named "scroll wheel" for a reason. Similarly, many mice allow you to tilt the wheel to scroll left and right. So, what's the point of keeping the thumb buttons of our mice mapped to an Internet Explorer functionality relic? Instead of continuously going Back and Forward, we open and discard tabs.
However, nowadays, we're navigating the web differently. The default assignments for the extra buttons in mice are a relic from back when Internet Explorer reigned supreme. So, allow us to offer an alternative that we promise can radically change how you use your computer and dramatically boost your productivity. What if we told you that you're doing a disservice to yourself if you use such a multi-button mouse with its default key setup? Modern mice come with at least one or two extra buttons accessible with your thumb, and many also hide two more on their sides of the scroll wheel.
