DF left-handed control? (lemmy.world)

So, I use left-handed mouse settings in my Linux, but when I downloaded DF (free version) and started it, I saw that somehow the game doesn't support my system settings and changed the control to right-handed, and what's worse, the game doesn't have left-handedness settings in the settings... Is there any way to set left-handed control at all?

I don't think there is a left handed mode. You can change hotkeys in the game and create one. https://dwarffortresswiki.org/index.php/DF2014:Controls If your a new player, that might be a bad idea though. The game is already so complex, that adding another layer of complexity might be to much.
