About Scrolling Using the Wheel Mouse

You can scroll a precise or measured distance by using the wheel mouse. Scrolling is a method of seeing parts of a document that lie outside the document window.

To scroll, place the cursor in an application window that supports scrolling, then

To scroll up, move the mouse wheel forward.

To scroll down, move the mouse wheel back.

MouseWare software supports scrolling in both the vertical and horizontal directions. If the window you are in has a horizontal scrollbar only (e.g. no vertical scrollbar), then moving the wheel up will cause the window to scroll to the left, and moving the wheel down will cause the window to scroll to the right.

If the window you are in has both horizontal and vertical scrollbars, use the mouse wheel to scroll vertically as usual. To scroll in the horizontal direction, depress the <CTRL><SHIFT> key combination while moving the mouse wheel.

Note: You can set up the mouse wheel to specify the amount of scrolling in relation to the movement of the mouse wheel. To specify the amount of scrolling, use the Buttons tab of the Mouse Properties.
