How to bind the thumbwheel on the midi keyboard to the brush size control in Photoshop?

Do you want to bind the midi keyboard knob to change the size of the brush in Photoshop? I downloaded autohotkey, but I'm not very good at scripting. Can anyone just explain in Russian how to do this? Thank you.

Very briefly, you need to find out the scan code that is sent by your thumbwheel (if it is sent at all) and replace it with a key combination to increase the size of the brush (after setting / recognizing it in Photoshop). As I think, the handle should send different combinations depending on the direction of rotation.
What you need:
1. Go here, carefully read the "Special Keys" at the end.
2. As described there, create an .ahk file, with a single line: #InstallKeybdHook.
3. We look at what the twister sends.
4. We write our own script, by type:

SC159::
Send ^!b
return

In general, dig in that direction. I can't vouch for the code, I wrote on autohotkey for a very long time.
PS I also recommend to google "autohotkey midi remapping", see the results.

Didn't find what you were looking for?
