I don't believe its currently possible. I found this thread which goes back to 2011 and Paul claims to have added it to his list? I don't think it ever went in though?...

i like to see that generally maped all input devices and the whole input device
to the developent language.
my mouse have 5 buttons and a wheel.
i know thats not the concept code once.
also its unrealistic to make a multiplayer fps android tablet vs pc.

It would just be useful for my editor to have more than 2 buttons.

I'm sure some people out there think a tablet interface is superior. Just like the folks who think they're better playing COD with an xbox controller than I would be with a mouse. Now that's just silly :p

yes,i can understand.
at pc the user will be wondered why the wheel is not supported.
if all players use the same input device its ok with gamepad.
for myself i don't like the keyboard/mouse combination.

I would personally really like to have scroll wheel support like we have in DBPro. It's great for gaming and for tool creation.

I think AppGameKit was made with the intent that all games should work exactly the same on all platforms. But that's not ideal. Controls should take advantage of each platform. I think AppGameKit should support all common inputs, including a mouse wheel.

For the record, obviously you can do this in AppGameKit Tier 2; I support the mouse wheel in Nexus of Power. However I know that doesn't help for Tier 1 users.

It could also be used to test zoom functions on a PC that's not multi touch - ie. most of them

I don't see why an exception can't be made, not all existing commands are universal to all platforms - My PC doesn't have a camera or half the sensors my phone has
