IBM 6274, 2283 manual Using the IBM ScrollPoint mouse

Using the IBM ScrollPoint mouse

There are two types of mice for your computer, the ScrollPoint III and the ScrollPoint Wireless mouse. There are some differences that will be discussed later. However, from an operational standpoint, they are the same.

The ScrollPoint mouse has the following controls.

1Primary mouse button: Use this button to select or start a program or menu item.

2Quick/auto scroll button: Use this button to put the mouse into auto-scrollmode. When the mouse is in auto-scroll mode, the movement of the mouse controls the scrolling direction and speed. To exit from the auto-scroll mode, click any of the mouse buttons.

3Context menu button: Use this button to display a menu for the active program, icon, or object.

4Scroll stick: Use this stick to control the scrolling action of the mouse. This stick is pressure sensitive. The direction in which you apply pressure controls the direction of the scrolling action. The amount of pressure you apply controls the scrolling speed.

Note: The Scroll stick works only when the mouse pointer is located over a scrollable area, such as a long document.
