The OpenOfficeMouse mouse is designed specifically for use with OpenOffice and incorporates OOo 3.1 usage data for its default button assignments.

Just a note on the usage data in case anyone is wondering which data that is. The usage data Theo is referring to is from the User Feedback Program.

See more about this program in today' blog post from Frank Loehmann: http://blogs.sun.com/GullFOSS/entry/impress_click_map_what_s

The software presently allows complete customization of
the mouse's 18 buttons, scroll wheel, and analog joystick. Additional functionality includes double-click assignments for all 18 buttons as well as the ability to use the joystick as a keyboard with 4, 8, or 16 assignable key commands. Version 1.0 of the software is already functional for Windows operating systems and the code will be released under the Gnu Lesser General Public License (LGPLv3). The mouse possesses 512k flash memory, supports 64 on-mouse application profiles, and 1024-character macros. The software is written in C++ using Qt library and uses .svg format for all graphics. The most pressing need is for a library for sending and receiving commands according to the HID standard in order to provide full Linux and OS/X support.

More information about the OpenOfficeMouse can be found at www.openofficemouse.com. The OpenOfficeMouse will be publicly introduced at OOoCon next month.

Very exciting stuff.

+1 for incubator project


Thank you,
Theo

Best regards,
