4. How to Use Your Mouse
Get to know all of the options available to you
When it comes to programming your middle button (the scroll
wheel), it couldn't be any easier. On the bottom right hand
corner of your screen, you will find a yellow box with an
orange triangle in it. Click on this, then click on "Open".
Starting with the "Universal Scroll" section, you will be
allowed to choose and restrict the direction your mouse can
scroll. "X-Scroll" and "Y-Scroll" are already selected for you.
This allows you to scroll left/right and up/down respectively.
Clicking off the "X-Scroll" will make it so that you can scroll
only up and down while clicking off the "Y-Scroll" with make it
so that you can only scroll left and right. Clicking off both of
them will render the scrolling features of the wheel useless.
The "Direction Reverse" field will reverse the direction that
you scroll. So by clicking it, if you depressed the wheel and
moved your mouse to the left, you would scroll to the right.
You are also able to choose between scrolling by lines or by
pages. Choosing to scroll by page is usually recommended for
larger documents that need to be browsed quickly.
"Speed" will determine how quickly your screen will move
when you activate the "Auto Browse" feature.
"Auto Browsing" allows you to scroll automatically by clicking
the wheel once. This will change the look of the point to a dot
with four arrows pointing from it. Move the mouse in the
direction that you wish to browse and the page will smoothly
go that direction. The further away you move from your
original point, the faster the scrolling.
From here, you can set how many lines per second you would
like the browser to move. The higher the setting, the faster
the scrolling action.
