From the
Mouse Properties
window you can customize many settings for your mouse
including button assignments, scroll wheels and cursor movement. To open the
Mouse
Properties
window double-click on the mouse
icon in the system tray. The
Mouse
Properties
window has six tabs that are described below.
System Tray
Buttons Tab
Button Assignments:
Click the down arrow to select the preferred
function for each button. (See the
Settings Tab
for more information.)
Double Click Speed:
Increase the speed for executing a double-
click.
Button Configuration:
Configure your mouse for left- or right-
hand use. The default setting for buttons 1 and 2 will be reversed.
Ø
Note!
The particular mouse you purchased may differ somewhat from
the illustration shown in the
Buttons
tab. The third button on
some models is positioned under the vertical scroll wheel instead
of at the side as shown here.
Pointers Tab
The Pointers tab lets you change the way the cursor appears. Click the
down arrow under
Scheme
and choose the setting you want. The
available pointers for each scheme are shown in the pane below. You can
browse to additional pointers, then create your own scheme using the
Save As
button.
Motion Tab
Pointer Speed:
Lets you adjust how fast the cursor moves on the
screen.
SnapTo Button:
Check this box to automatically have the cursor
move to the default button in each new dialog box or window.
Sonar:
When this box is checked, pressing and releasing the
[Ctrl]
key
will highlight the cursor.
Trails:
Check this box when you want your cursor to display pointer
trails. This option is useful when using an LCD display that can make
the cursor difficult to see.
