Change which mouse button rotates the model

Hi, is there a way to change the rotate button to the back button on my mouse? I don't want to have to change what the button does at a system level because I still want it to be the back button while using a web browser.

 

I want to change it because it is much less stress on my wrist to hold the back button and move the mouse compared to the middle mouse button.

Maybe. Creo does not support remapping directly.

 

There are 3rd party applications that support remapping of the mouse buttons with an application context. 3D connexion and Logitech have products and SW capable of doing this.

 

Scripting tools such as AutoIT could also be used to realize this in some cases.

Thanks, I was able to get x-mouse to work. The process needed for creo was xtop.exe for anyone having trouble finding the right one. It took me awhile.
