26 Tools guide — RIM 950 Wireless Handheld simulator
Developer’s Guide – RIM 950 Wireless Handheld™
Using the keyboard
The left and right arrow buttons on the PC keyboard simulate the
clicking of the trackwheel while the up and down arrow buttons
simulate the rolling.
Using the mouse
To perform the roller action using the mouse, click the trackwheel with
the left mouse button and drag vertically.
To click the trackwheel, depress the right mouse button. This action
allows the trackwheel to be rolled and clicked independently. In
addition, the simulator provides full support for the Microsoft
Intellimouse. You must first ensure that the correct Microsoft
Intellimouse drivers are installed. Using the Microsoft Intellimouse, the
mouse’s roller can be used to operate the wireless handheld’s
trackwheel. However, the Intellimouse roller only works when the
mouse pointer is over the RIM Wireless Handheld simulator.
Due to Windows filtering of events, sometimes trackwheel and right
mouse button clicks are not handled during, and immediately after
rotating the Intellimouse mouse wheel. This anomaly only occurs when
using the trackwheel on the Intellimouse.
LCD
The LCD size can be toggled between full size (with correct aspect
ratios), and actual size (how readable a display screen will be on the
actual hardware). To change the size of the LCD on your simulator,
select Display > Change size.
Simulation menu
The RIM Wireless Handheld simulator allows you to simulate the holster
environment as well as various battery conditions of the Wireless
Handheld. Under this menu, select the conditions you want to simulate.
