Using the Mouse

 

 

This manual uses the term “mouse” to indicate a pointer. The mouse is a tool used for moving the cursor, or pointer, on the screen. Slide the mouse around on a flat surface or mouse pad to move the pointer. The best way to understand how the mouse works is to practice using it.

 

There are usually only two buttons (left and right) located on top of the mouse. Always use the left mouse button unless specifically told to use the right mouse button. If your mouse has three buttons, ignore the middle button when using Omnixx Force. The following terms and definitions describe how this manual refers to using the mouse.
