Click again to release ClickLock.

The Vanish feature, located on the Visibility tab, hides the pointer when you type. The pointer reappears when you move the mouse or trackball.
The Wheel feature, located on the Wheel tab, turns the wheel on or off. How the wheel works depends on your software application. For example, in a word processing application, you might roll the wheel to move up or down the page a few lines at a time.
The Wheel Button feature, located on the Wheel tab, turns the wheel button on or off. How the wheel button works depends on your software application. For example, in a spreadsheet application, you might press the wheel button while moving the mouse or trackball to pan through the cells of the spreadsheet.
