Keybinds. Can't get to work after all this time.
I just want to use a mouse button, to allow me to highlight all items in a container, and send to camp.

At the minute, I press Shift(Left or Right), and this allows me to do this. I've tried binding a mouse key to every Shift I can find in menu, but can't get this work.

What actual command is it - why can't I get to work on a mouse button?

I would use my mouse software to bind Shift to a mouse button that is currently not being used for anything else.

Of course, it would be most convenient if the mouse software you use allowed for automatic configuration depending on what software was running.

Razer has that capability, but I have never been able to get Synapse to run reliably on my system. :(

Hi.

It's a Razor Deathadder.

I'm not even sure what the instruction I'm trying to bind to is. It works works to add the mouse button, it just doesn't work right. As I said, I might be binding to wrong instruction. All I know is, it works on Shift(left or right).

So, are we talking about bindings in the BG3 keybinds or in the Synapse mouse configurations?

First I need to work out which instruction is being controlled by Shift. The one that allows me to highlight multiple items in crates, and send to camp. When I've worked that out, I can try and bind mouse key to it.

The only 2 which mention Shift are:

Hold to split item stack - Right Shift.

Toggle Climbing - Left Shift.

Holding either Shift however, allows me to select multiple items. I just want to be able to do that with a mouse button.

As I said, it is not a matter of BG3 instructions. Shift and CTRL select are Windows operations and will not be changeable within normal BG3 keybinds.

So, the only way is to assign Shift to one of the side buttons on your mouse using Synapse software. Then, you use that button just as you would use the KBD Shift key to mass select inventory items.

Is this what you need to know?

Going to be out for a couple of hours, but will check in once I return. :)

Good Luck

OK thanks.

Well I'm not going to bother doing that, so I'll just have to put up with it.

Thanks for your help.

I understand. Sorry did not have a better solution.
