I have a Razer deathadder and i was wondering if there was any way to assign a mouse function like dpi switch, profile switch, or on-the-fly sensitivity to a keyboard key. I also have a G15 keyboard so if there was a way to use some of the G keys to switch profiles then I would love to know how.

I remember it being possible (I only had a DA briefly though), just browse through the manual or drivers/software that comes with the mouse.

He wants to know if he can change his dpi for his mouse with his keyboard for example...
That's not what i meant. I know how to assign keyboard keys to the mouse buttons but I want to know how to assign mouse functions to keyboard keys. Thanks for all the help though guys.

you are allowed to bump posts every 24 hours, its just that yours were getting detected as spam by an automated system, so no one was seeing them.
Try longer posts (a few words at least) and you may have better luck next time
now you may not be able to set a sensitity switch to the keys on a keyboard, but if the razer software lets you set profiles, there may be a way to make it swap profiles via a keyboard command.

If your still wondering. Then.. no.
As far as I'm aware it is NOT possible to assign mouse functions (e.g. dpi switch, blah blah) to a keyboard key. But then again, why would it? You buy a mouse to assign functions to IT (the mouse), if you want to bind your keyboard keys then buy a gaming keyboard.

Well, if he has a G15, then I don't see why he couldn't do it. Although I've never had a G15, I'm fairly sure that if you look through the software then you'll find what he's looking for.
