Logitech G502 how do I unassign the default button for DPI shift?

[Logitech131]

so sense I love the mouse and all is there a way to make the DPI shift button like do nothing and just the key I assigned it to let's say #5 and if I accidentally click the regular DPI button nothing will annoy me? I don't want to return the mouse just because of a DPI accidental click other buttons don't annoy me. Just DPI my fingers are long I use palm/claw grip. That DPI shift button gets to me I want it to be #5 on keyboard and nothing for use on that button lol

Plz respond

I have the g502 and I thought you could just assign it whatever you wanted through the software.

Were you able to get the DPI shift button to be switched to a key? Because I want the DPI shift button to do nothing unless I push the new assigned button...

Just open up the LGS software, and drag the DPI macro off the key it is on. Or click it and unassign the macro. The DPI shift is just the default behavior, but you can change it. This is not an in game assignable button. It has to be assigned in the LGS software. Windows does not recognize mouse buttons beyond 5 (left, right, middle, back and forward buttons).

Cool lol I made a random account to ask this so worth it. You can also do some kind of like hold time for DPI shift right? Like 5-10 second hold for DPI shift?

That one may be trickier. The DPI functions are not available during the normal multikey macros, which would be needed to have it function for 10 seconds and stop. You can, however, use their script editor to accomplish this, but it is not easy to do if you do not know how to program.

How do I program lol...I was wondering because someone has it to where u hold the DPI shift down for 5 seconds . that way its not accidental..I will be looking at how to use the script editor though ...if your not good at scripting is it safe to try ._.

That seems like an odd request, as you usually want it to DPI shift when held, but here goes:

1) You need to create 2 DPI settings for the profile you are using. The normal one, and a low DPI setting)
2) Create 2 mouse macros. DPI Up and DPI Down. Do not assign these to a key, leave them in the list on the left in the LGS software.
3) Put this script into the script editor (right click the profile and click scripting or editor).

function OnEvent(event, arg)
	if (event == "MOUSE_BUTTON_PRESSED" and arg == 6) then
		PlayMacro("DPI Down")
		Sleep(5000)
		PlayMacro("DPI Up")
	end
end

ok so I know this thread is very old but I have a much easier way of doing all of this, simply redownload your software and you will get the new updated software. from there you can just click on the dpi buttons and select disable. boom, done. no scripting required. Also, here is another trick I found. if you want to assign the buttons for something else in your game, just assign the two buttons to back quote and backslash. I hope i helped, have a nice day!
