Digital Tigers SideCar MMS Series manual Windows XP “Pointer Options” tab

Windows XP “Pointer Options” tab:

ƒMotion – Move this slider to adjust the speed at which the pointer moves on your screen. Changes are previewed immediately (without clicking “Apply”). You may find that you prefer moving the slider toward “Fast” to make it easier to move the pointer across your large, multi-screen desktop.

ƒEnhance pointer precision – This option increase the precision of small mouse movements, and also helps decelerate the mouse when finishing a mouse gesture.

We recommend selecting this option.

ƒSnap To – Another Windows option: causes the cursor to “jump” to the default button in

dialog boxes. While this sounds convenient, many users find this confusing – the mouse may seem to suddenly disappear, moving to a completely different screen in response to a dialog box. We suggest you leave this option unchecked.

ƒDisplay pointer trails – An XP option: causes a comet-like trail of ghosted mouse pointers to follow the mouse pointer around the screen. Default is unchecked, which works best for most users.

ƒHide pointer while typing – Another XP option.

ƒShow location of pointer when I press the CTRL key – This XP option is particularly helpful on multi-screen desktops. When the CTRL key is pressed (and released), a quick “bulls-eye” animation converges on the cursor and disappears. If you find yourself misplacing the mouse pointer, we suggest selecting this option.

Click “Apply” to test checkbox options such as “Show location of pointer when I press the CTRL key”.

When finished, click “OK” to close the Mouse Properties dialog box.
