Using a Gaming Mouse with Capture One

I'm left-handed so I finally decided to buy a left handed mouse.  While buying the mouse, I decided to upgrade the purchase to a gaming mouse.  This mouse (by Razer) is programable and has 12 extra buttons on it along with programmability for the left click, right click, scroll wheel, and scroll wheel click.  Over a month or so of use, I've set up the extra buttons to do things like copy adjustments, apply adjustments, export, crop, exposure warning on/off, hand tool, and several more.  While this may seem almost trivial and a waste of time, I've found that I do the operations programmed into these buttons without taking my eyes off the editing and not needing to move the mouse to a screen position.  It took a while to get adjusted but after the initial period, I find using the gaming mouse buttons simple, quick, and effective.  I've reduced mouse movement, and speeded up my operation noticeably.  Let me know if you have a similar experience.

  I use a 20 button mouse (logitech) and it's a game changer for workflow.
