Toggle/Auto-repeat for mouse buttons?

[notNSANE]

Well, I found a situation where a toggle could be useful, and since there isn't a functionality like this on CC I'd like to request it.

(Specifically, it's for running in Fable: TLC, I need to keep pressing the Left Analog Trigger and it's difficult after a while)

Not the brightest idea but you could try to bind that game function to a keyboard button instead of a mouse button from settings menu if that's possible.

That's the same discussion we're having on Diablo and Torchlight. I am assuming when you left click the mouse it automatically clicks on the target and shoots at the same time?

I try to use the default keybindings in all cases unless there isn't an alternative. In this case, Fable uses Right Mouse Click for some attacks and running... not the brightest idea.

Not only for that situation in MMO's is specially useful as people usually have to press the right mouse button to change view so it would be good for lots of reason the TOGGLE than the auto repeat thought well in my opinion anyway...

Being able to use a controller can mean the difference for people like me, in being able to play and NOT being able to play. And I am far from the only person here. People who use computers all day, ppl with arthritis, ppl who have carpal tunnel, ppl who can't hunch over a k/m for any reason--it's a huge percentage.

Primarily, it's a problem with the game devs and the gameplay systems they design that are not accessible to 25%+ of their potential player base.

It's nice to at least have program devs who are trying to help us use controllers and map keys but sadly, too many games just are not set up to make that comfortable or easy even when using 3rd party programs :(

By "Left Analog Trigger" you meant L3 or LT button? LT/RT doesn't seem difficult to hold for me. Anyway just fired up Fable TLC from my library and it seems to bind 3 functions to RMB by default, maybe you should assign 1 or 2 of those functions to keyboard buttons to easier use. After all CC is made to serve you not the other way around, just mess around until you find bindings that work best

Try holding AND using it for movement for at least 1 minute - for example, one of the earliest quests wants you to run back and forth. In a two hour long sessions, you will dramatically notice your thumb strenght starts to give in.
At least my XBOX gamepad needs quite a bit of strenght to hold it, and I'm pretty sure a 7 year old kid would have issues with it due to the lack of muscle development.

Again, my idea of CC Profiles is this:
1. Download the game
2. Subscribe/Download the profile
3. Start the game
4. Enjoy

The players shouldn't be needing to change any keybindings from inside the game, in my opinion.

Speaking of Fable TLC, have you found a way to effectively map 1->9 buttons to the controller? There just doesn't seem to be enough buttons on the gamepad for that.

[GeekGranny]

I can't hold the triggers, either. For anything, I need to use X or somesuch.

I am wondering. In some games there are items/spells/weapons that map 1-9 [Dragon age for example] across the keyboard [seen at the bottom of the screen] but they can be moused across to choose one. I wonder if there's a way to do a sort of sweep across them with perhaps, a LB or some such then just hit X or B or whatever.
