First of all, I'm very grateful to the author for creating this project.
I have a little problems when using it.
I'm using the Logitech M720, which doesn't have thumb wheel but has a 4-way wheel. The wheel can be press to the side to achieve left and right scroll. Whether I use logiops or not, my horizontal scroll button is very slow, and I wonder if there is any way to adjust its speed.
I did try add the thumbwheel option in the logid.cfg like this:

thumbwheel:
    {
        divert: true;
        invert: false;
        left: {
            mode: "Axis";
            axis: "REL_HWHEEL_HI_RES";
            axis_multiplier: -10;
        },
        right: {
            mode: "Axis";
            axis: "REL_HWHEEL_HI_RES";
            axis_multiplier: 10;
        };
    }

But it doesn't work.
Then I tried to remap the left and right scroll button. The left scroll button named button 6 in xev, the cid is 0x5b. I tired to simulate the left scroll event first, use the evtest capture the input event, the output is:

Event: time 1605262840.231548, type 2 (EV_REL), code 6 (REL_HWHEEL), value -1
Event: time 1605262840.231548, type 2 (EV_REL), code 12 (REL_HWHEEL_HI_RES), value -120
Event: time 1605262840.231548, -------------- SYN_REPORT ------------

And then I realized that I can't simulate it with Keypress option.
So is there a way to adjust the speed of the horizontal scroll button? Maybe I should use the axis mode to set a gesture, but I did read the configuration page, but still don't know how.
imwheel can set the horizontal scrolling speed, but I'm looking for a simpler (i.e. only logiops) solution.
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.
