The Mouse (Corded and Wireless)
Both corded and wireless mouse have the features
written below.
Features of a mouse
The mouse uses a cursor called a pointer. Pointers come
in many different shapes but are most commonly shaped
like an arrow.
Your mouse has two buttons: a left button and a right
button. Quickly pressing and releasing one of these
buttons is called clicking. Sometimes you will need to
double
-
click or click the same button twice quickly.
In this manual, click means to position your mouse point
on an icon and to single click the left button. When a
right
-
click is required, this is stated clearly. Double
-
click
also refers to the left button.
The ratchet wheel in between the two buttons is added
to provide easier scrolling capability. By simply moving
the wheel with your index finger, you can quicky move
through multiple pages, line, or windows. The wheel may
also function as a third button allowing you to quickly
click or double
-
click an icon or a selected item.
Note:
Note: If you are left

handed, please refer to
your Windows Me manual for instructions on
how to set up your mouse for left
-
handed use.
