[uberOptions] Enable all options on all buttons in SetPoint

Problems:

1. SetPoint's default settings won't let you change settings on some buttons (such as Left Button, Right Button, and Tilt Left/Right on mouses; and volume and media control keys on keyboards).
2. The buttons you can configure, you can't set to some options (no Launch Program on mouse buttons, etc.)
3. On older versions of SetPoint, the Forward and Back actions don't work with Firefox, Opera, SlimBrowser, or Maxthon (they need another AppOverride to tell SetPoint what keystroke to send, since Logitech didn't just have them send the normal mouse4/mouse5 events for unknown apps).

Solution:

Install my uberOptions pack to change the device settings for SetPoint! All it took was editing some XML files.

Notes:

• Since the Forward/Back actions use Application Specific settings on those buttons to send different events depending on what exe has the focus, the fix I'm using only works for the default two buttons. If you want to do Forward/Back in Firefox/Opera 8 on another button (or reversed for that matter), use the "Keystroke" action with "Alt+Right"/"Alt+Left".
• Since you can set any button to any action, you can easily end up without a left-click button, so be careful. If you do this; press Esc to cancel, use another mouse to fix it, or kill KEM.exe/Setpoint.exe in Task Manager with the keyboard. (Ctrl+Shift+Esc opens the Task Manager in Windows XP.)
• These modified files work with SetPoint 2.22 - 4.60 (and probably later versions, too - but not the special "SetPoint 5.0" for the G9 mouse). If you are using an older version of SetPoint, install the newest available version (4.60) from Logitech's support site or FTP first.
• SetPoint for Windows XP x64, Windows Vista 32bit, and Windows Vista x64 work with uberOptions fine, but I don't have direct access to x64 or Vista to test with, so tell me if you have problems.
• uberOptions grays-out any device that the image files don't exist for. SetPoint should prompt to download an "Update" to install the needed image files for any new device. If that update failed (or was canceled), uberOptions can't install the replacement files for that device. See Button Images
• Always uninstall uberOptions before updating SetPoint. After you have finished updating, re-install uberOptions.

To install the uberOptions mod, download and run uberInstall.exe:

• current version: v4.60.1: main, mirror (3.82 MiB) Supports SetPoint 2.22-4.60
• old version: v4.40.5: main, mirror (3.79 MiB) Supports SetPoint 2.22-4.40 (works fine with SetPoint 4.60 as well)

To set a button to Sleep/Hibernate: Create a shortcut somewhere that runs Rundll32.exe Powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState Sleep or Rundll32.exe Powrprof.dll,SetSuspendState Hibernate then you can set a button to Launch App and point at the shortcut.

Same with Safely Remove Hardware: make a shortcut that runs RunDll32.exe shell32.dll,Control_RunDLL hotplug.dll then set a button in SetPoint to open the shortcut.

For access to additional macros, install AutoHotkey and use the macros installed by uberOptions in C:\Program Files\Logitech\SetPoint\uberOptions

If you want the MX Revolution's 3-way thumb switch to act as 1 button (instead of uberOption's default of splitting it into 3 separate buttons), you need to change to the "simple thumb" defaults:

1. Close SetPoint's tray icon
2. In C:\ProgramData\Logitech\SetPoint\Devices\PointingDevice\100006D (Vista) or C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Application Data\Logitech\SetPoint\Devices\PointingDevice\100006D (XP) replace 100006D.xml with 100006D default simple thumb.xml
3. Delete your user.xml settings file from %userprofile%\Application Data\Logitech\SetPoint\user.xml to reset to the new defaults. Go to start->run and paste in %userprofile%\Application Data\Logitech\SetPoint That's the user.xml to delete (with SetPoint closed first) to reset to the new defaults.
4. Restart C:\Program Files\Logitech\SetPoint\SetPoint.exe or reboot.

Upgrade Instructions

To upgrade SetPoint or uberOptions and keep your current SetPoint settings: Here the best way to display both setting screens:

1. Close SetPoint from the System Tray
2. Open %userprofile%\Application Data\Logitech\SetPoint (just copy and paste it in Start->Run)
3. Make a copy of the user.xml file in that folder. This file contains all of your SetPoint settings. Backup gamelist.xml if you use the Game Detection feature in SetPoint.
4. Uninstall uberOptions (there's a link in Control Panel->Add/Remove Programs, or Start->All Programs->uberOptions, or just run C:\Program Files\Logitech\SetPoint\uberOptions\uninst.exe)
5. Upgrade SetPoint from Logitech's Support Site or ftp.logitech.com
6. Download and re-install the newest uberOptions from this page. Do not re-load SetPoint at the end of uberOptions installation, or close SetPoint from the System Tray
7. Restore your user.xml from the copy you saved in step 2.
8. Restart SetPoint or reboot

Eventually, I hope to have fixed the settings for all the devices that SetPoint supports, but I'll need help from users who actually have the devices to test my modifications.
