Some time ago the back-button on my mouse startet to trigger TWO steps back when using it in the XYplorer navigation. Web navigation and Windows explorer are triggering one step. So as fa as I can tell, it is not a defective mouse switch.
Does anyomne have a theory how I could have messed that up?

Re: Mousebutton "Back" goes back twice
Hmm, it might be Configuration | General | Custom Event Actions | Release mouse back button ... I will add an action option "None" to the next beta (v22.30.0107). Try it.

Re: Mousebutton "Back" goes back twice
Thanks for the reply!
I didn't have that setting in my old version. But I successfully updated, found the Setting but the problem remains:
Forward and Back mouse buttons both trigger twice (or, if set to "none": not at all)
Even if I use AutoHotKey to simulate a single button press: (So I can eliminate any possible hardware error)
still triggers twice.
alt+cursor works fine.
My current workaround is that I remapped my mousebuttons to fire [alt]+[left] and [alt]+[right], which seems to be a very universal shortcut.

Sleep, 2000
Send, {XButton1}
still triggers twice.

Re: Mousebutton "Back" goes back twice
Obviously this is a system problem, not a XY one.
Are you running any mouse driver (e.g. Logitech) or XMouseButton that interferes and sends a double click instead?

Re: Mousebutton "Back" goes back twice
I disagree: (At least I don't see any "obvious" reason to believe that it is NOT related to XYplorer)
- All other Programs register ONE click.
- A simulated single generic click is registered twice. (So I guess it has nothing to do with mouse drivers)
I just now installed X-Mouse Button control to see if I could remap mouse4 to mouse4, but the problem is still there.
Mapping middle button to mouse4 worked, but XY-plorer still reacts twice.
Then I tried mapping mouse4 to "backspace": fires only once.
As far as I can tell, it is specifically XYplorer that double-triggers on mouse4 and mouse5. (mouse1-mouse3 behave normally)
Re: Mousebutton "Back" goes back twice
CONFIRMED.
22.30.0213
Clean install
Documents, in the tree
Click the "+"
Click another "+" button on a directory
Select a directory in that expanded directory
Use the back mouse button
SEE WHERE IT GOES!!
select the same subdirectory
Use backspace
Now see where it goes
No wonder I don't use XY.

Re: Mousebutton "Back" goes back twice
Not here...A simulated single generic click is registered twice
v22.30.0213
CEA - Other Events - Release mouse on back button - Run script:
copytext "back", "a";
X-Mouse Button Control setup for XYplorer
Layer 1 - Mouse Button 4 - Simulated Keys: (pressed){XMB1}]
Emptied clipboard
Inside XY, navigating two subfolders deep, back button once, pasting to a text editor:
back
NOT a
backback
as it would happened if the event would have fired twice...I'm not using any logitech software (driver), only XMBC...
