Swap mouse buttons? - Guild Wars Forums

OK I've had a look around but I can't seem to find an answer to this, but is it possible to change the operation of the left and right mouse buttons in guild wars?

As a former WoW player (2 years or so) I'm very much in the habit of right clicking to interact with things and left clicking for camera adjustments. I've been through the options etc and I can't seem to find a way to change it. WoW got boring so I thought I'd try guild wars instead.

It seems something small but it is VERY frustrating and I've tried to get used to it but have failed to the point where its so annoying I'm determined to find a way around it before I continue playing the game. Only solution I've found thus far is to tell windows to swap the buttons around, but that of course breaks everything else!

Anyways, hopefully I've just missed the check box that says 'swap mouse buttons round' and you can all laugh at me, any help appreciated

Presuming you are using Windows you can switch the mouse buttons under the properties in Control Panel.

Control Panel -> Mouse -> Button Configuration

This will then swap the function of your mouse buttons round for everything. I guess you can just switch them when you load up GW and then switch it back when you finish.

I don't think GW has a built in ability to switch the mouse buttons so that is your best shot.
