I've not use it or think I'll ever use it. I just don't see a need for it. It's just "eye candy" as far as I'm concern.

Only time I have used it was to show others about this feature in Vista who hasn't seen it yet.

Does anyone know how to map a mouse button so it can turn on Flip3D? I might use it more if I can assign one of my mouse buttons for it.

I have a MS LaserMouse 6000.

If your mouse has an application switch button then the newest software from MS will automatically assign flip 3D to it.

Same here, I very rarely use Flip3D when I do use it, it is just for showing off really to people haven't seen Vista.

I use the latest MS Intellimouse but I didn't see anything about Flip3d. But I did find a way to assign a button to this app. Select "Start "Custom" " and in the field type C:\Windows\System32\RunDll32.exe DwmApi #105

I heard this only works with MS mice though.
