5.2. ZAxisMappping

This option maps the Z axis (wheel) motion to a pair of buttons or to another axis.

	ZAxisMapping X
	ZAxisMapping Y
	ZAxisMapping N M

The first example will map the Z axis motion to the X axis motion. Whenever the user moves the wheel/roller, its movement is reported as the X axis motion. When the wheel/roller stays still, the real X axis motion is reported as is. The last example will map negative Z axis motion to the button N and positive Z axis motion to the button M. If this option is used and the buttons N or M actually exists in the mouse, their actions won't be detected by the X server.

Currently this option can not be set in the XF86Setup program. You need to edit the XF86Config file by hand to add this option.
