[1.1.80] custom keybinds dont rotate assemblies

[nevaduh]

im REALLY new to factorio, like i got the game last week, so apologies if this isnt actually a bug and im just stupid.

ive got an assembly with a fluid input and i want to rotate it, but the keybind thats usually 'R' i changed to the thumb mouse buttons 4 and 5 for the rotate and reverse rotate. now i am pretty sure this is a problem with the game and not me because when i rebind one of those to the default keys it works just fine and it rotates no problem.

what usually happens when i try to use my custom binds to rotate an assembling machine is that the Mbtn 5 sorta just defaults to the pipette tool, which has been and always was 'Q', if that makes sense.

again im really new to the game so let me know if im being dumb

If I understand correctly :
- you have bound rotate right/left to Mouse4 and Mouse5
- When you Mouse5, it seems to activate the pipette tool (inconsistant with your keybind)
- When you press 'Q', you also get the pipette tool (consistent with the keybind)

I have a couple questions :
- What happens when you Mouse4 ?
- Do you have secondary keybinds for Clear/pipette (I have Mouse4 and Mouse5, can't remember if it's by default)

[Koub] For now, I'm pretty sure it's an issue on your keybinds, not the game. Moving this to Technical Help. If we discover an actual bug, I'll move it back here.

can confirm i am just dumb, it was one of the secondary binds was set to mbtn 4 and 5 i think the reason i didnt see it mightve been because the secondary bind doesnt show on the search? no idea but i did find out what was wrong
