Mouse switch

Hello,
in version history is written:
"Desktop switching by clicking on the taskbar or the desktop with the back/forward mouse buttons",
but i didn't find this item in dexpot's settings.

Is it possible to switch desktops by mouse click only (at least with back/forward additional mouse buttons) without ctrl, shift or alt?

Thank you.

Is there a way to disable this feature? I use Ventrino that is currently mapped to the mouse forward button. So if I click the mouse forward button, it switches desktops on me, which I did not want to do. Thanks for the help.

  1. Quit Dexpot.
  2. Open the Dexpot registry key HKEY_CURRENT_USER\Software\Dexpot.
  3. Set "SeitentastenWechsel" to 0.

Is it possible to make switching between desktops with forward/back mouse buttons being in any application (not only clicking on taskbar or clean desktop)?

No, but we could add it as an option in the next version.

Yes, please, it would be great if you add this option in next version, plus if it possible to add mouse switch without moving the mouse to the edge of the screen and without ctrls or alts. It would be nice to switch desktops by a single right button click. Thank you very much.
