And of course they had to shoehorn some AI bullshit in it

(why I installed this driver: because i can remap the two extra buttons as copy/paste)

    Does it still allow macros? I have a couple of 502s and my older one has fallen victim to the common problem of rhe switch getting bouncey so one click becomes multiple. Supposedly macros can fix this.

      If your mouse drivers allow setting the debounce timer, you can set it higher so that your system doesn’t allow the bouncing to register.

      My 903 did that, and so did the one they replaced and now your making me worry about my 502. It’s shitty switches so a macro would hide it for a little at best. I tried to replace them but these are not fun to open up.

      This is a physical defect. Macros make one key press effect one or more action button or key press. For instance if a common operation involves pressing a b and c in sequence you can make one button on your mouse actuate that sequence.

      You can’t bind a macro to left click because then you can’t left click anymore. Even if you bound double clicking to single click (if this is even possible) it would mean every time it single click you would effect nothing which is equally if not more broken.

      You need to either take your mouse apart and fix it or throw it in the trash.
