Button mappings

+

+ Stylus buttons 2 and 3 (mouse middle and right buttons) can be mapped + to different tools using the appropriate submenus in the Options menu + (whereas the Tools menu and the toolbar buttons affect the primary tool + assigned to button 1). The default mapping is the eraser. +

+

Advanced configuration: + if a secondary button is mapped to a drawing tool (pen, eraser, or + highlighter), the default is to "dynamically link" its settings to those + of the primary tool, which means that each drawing tool has common + settings (color, thickness, etc.) for all buttons. + Dynamic linking of brush settings + can be disabled by selecting the "Copy of current brush" option in the + "Button mapping" submenu. The settings of the tool for button 2 or 3 are + copied from the button 1 settings at the time when you select the option, + and afterwards they are no longer updated when the button 1 settings are + modified, thus making it possible to assign pens of different colors or + thicknesses to different buttons. +

+

+ Another option that affects button mappings is the "Eraser tip" option. + If this option is turned on and the XInput extensions are enabled, then + the eraser tip of your tablet's stylus will automatically be remapped to + the eraser tool. This behavior, which overrides all other button mappings, + is most useful if your X server is configured to map the eraser tip of + your tablet's stylus to button 1. +
