Need CUE to recognize holding a button as holding, not repeatedly pressing [Scimitar]

[Wulf]

I just got a Corsair Scimitar today, and I set up 1-9 of the side buttons to their respective numbers on the keyboard.

 

I'm having a problem though. When I hold one of the buttons, apparently CUE makes the computer think I'm pressing the button rapidly repeatedly every other millisecond, and not holding the button for a constant effect of what the button would do.

 

This came to my attention when I was playing War Thunder. It's a airplane game and I usually bind 5 and 6 on my mouse to putting the elevators on my plane up and down. This now doesn't work because CUE isn't telling my machine I'm holding the buttons down.

 

Does anyone have a solution to this? I think it's kind of ridiculous if there's no solution to this problem considering almost every other MMO style mouse producing company has no problems making this happen on their own mice.

 

Thanks, and Merry Christmas.

It really depends on how you setup the buttons/actions/macros. Which settings are you using for it exactly?

I figured this out with macros. You'll need two. On the first one, uncheck "record delays," then record a button press. Stop the recording, and delete the "release" event. Close the macro, and make a second one. Record the button press again, but this time delete the initial button press, keeping only the release. Open the first one again, and check "Enable a second macro on release." Select the release macro. This has worked perfectly for modifier keys on my Saber. I'm sure there are other ways to do it, but I'm not sure what they are.

Thank You Red Korvo. This was driving me crazy. Stupid Corsair.

This is the fundamental disconnect Corsair has, and maybe why your software is universally not considered good by pretty much anyone on any product you create. So listen up and pay attention. Having to go through all of those steps to make a mouse recognize a button is being pressed, and held is ridiculous. I'm not sure how that's not clearly understood.
