Huh, I always forget to use it. :-( So Doh to me. I wonder why they don't have a Horiz wheel as well?? Regardz Colin J Davies Attention: It's finally arrived, The worlds first DSP.

Yeah, Microsoft do (don't know if anyone else does - Logitech do, I think). I've got one...but I rarely use the side-to-side feature. The wheel is...strange, as well - not like others I've used. It moves a lot more easily, but isn't sloppy. Stuart Dootson 'Java, Basic, who cares - it's all a bunch of tree-hugging hippy cr*p'

That looks cool. Pity they don't seem to have it on their trackerball products. I can't use a mouse for more than 5 minutes without getting painful sensations in the back of my hand and wrist.

Uh.. you had a spare mouse wheel? Did you have one lying around in your desk, or did you dissect an old mouse? :) -- Wir müssen leben bis wir sterben.

A couple days ago I was working with Visio and found my finger twitching around for the horizontal wheel! When it comes to Visio, I usually find myself twitching around for the uninstall button. :-D Tim Smith I'm going to patent thought. I have yet to see any prior art.

That rings very true in my space as well, but wherever I go, there is Visio. Aside from the fine looking (yet to try) CDiagramEditor here on CP, what other free/inexpensive CAD tools are available? We mustn't forget that Visio is a diagramming tool, not really a design tool. Sometimes Visio should also remember that. Learn which South African airlines never to use on my blog.

hey, that gives me an idea... Mod my mouse to include boot/trunk space for a spare wheel.

On Sunday night, while I was working late on a high priority task, I opened my mouse to clean the little pressure wheel inside (the one without sensors). While attempting to hack the dirt of with a blade, suddenly the wheel shot of and I heard a rattle inside the mouse. I was screwed. I hadn't worked much on Friday because I knew that I would make good progress on Sunday. With slim hope I opened the mouse up and found a small axel inside. Imagine my delight when I found that the axel clipped back into the wheel bracket, and nothing was broken. This is a small miracle in todays disposable technology.

The wheel on my mouse at work (a puny IntelliMouse Explorer v3 with the wussy little side buttons X|) needs a kick, or at least a relubrication, because it sticks and refuses to turn unless I apply serious force to it. And my IM Explorer v1 (with MANLY big side buttons) here at home is still humming right along... --Mike-- Personal stuff:: Ericahist | Homepage Shareware stuff:: 1ClickPicGrabber | RightClick-Encrypt CP stuff:: CP SearchBar v2.0.2 | C++ Forum FAQ ---- Wizard needs food, badly!
