Mouse scaling
Some earlier versions of Linux did not support adjustable mouse acceleration. For installations that must
support these earlier versions, choose among three preconfigured mouse scaling options or set a custom
scaling. The preconfigured settings are Default (1:1), High (2:1), or Low (1:2).
In a 1:1 scaling ratio, every mouse movement in the desktop window sends an equivalent mouse
movement to the target device.
In a 2:1 scaling ratio, the same mouse movement sends a 2x mouse movement.
In a 1:2 scaling ratio, the value is 1/2x.
To set mouse scaling:
1.
Select
Tools>Session Options
from the Video Viewer window menu.
The Session Options dialog box appears.
2.
Click the
Mouse
tab.
3.
To use a preconfigured setting, select the appropriate radio button.
4.
To set a custom scaling:
a.
Select the
Custom
radio button to enable the X and Y fields.
b.
Enter a scaling value in the X and Y fields. For every mouse input, the mouse movements are
multiplied by the respective X and Y scaling factor. The valid input range is 0.25 to 3.00.
