The Logic Off Topic list

Let's see if I can explain myself... I use the second mouse button to 
access all the logic tools, but in order to do this I have to assign in 
key commands one key (comma in my example) to "show tools", and then 
assign in the mouse driver preferences (logitech preferences in my 
example) the second button to the "comma" key...this works fine with 
logic , but then I loose the funcionality of the mouse second button 
with the system, i.e. the contextual menu...there's another way to get 
the "show tools" command? Or ... there's any possibility to get both 
funcionalities?

Some mouse-software (like my Wacom Graphire software) allows 
assignment on a per-application basis.  If yours does, then you can 
assign comma to right-click in Logic, but keep control-click 
(contextual menu) for other applications.

If your software doesn't allows for such flexibility, you might want 
to check out usb-overdrive, which I've heard people being very 
enthusiastic about.
