3.6 Mouse control
Computers may conveniently be selected using a three button mouse. In order to
switch to the next computer simply hold down the central mouse button (the wheel
mouse button on an IntelliMouse) and click on the left hand mouse button to select
the next computer or the right hand mouse button to select the previous computer. If
the SmartView has been set to scan active ports then the next or previous active
channel will be selected. If it has been set to scan all ports then the next or previous
numerical channel in sequence will be selected (see section 4.5 for more details).
Mouse switching may be enabled or disabled by setting options during configuration
(see section 4.3). When mouse switching is disabled the third button or wheel button
state is ‘passed through’ the SmartView and seen by the application software.
