ThinkPad Middle Mouse Button Questions

#1 Post by Zeus » Fri Feb 23, 2007 12:12 pm

I have a few questions about the ThinkPad T60p middle mouse button.

1) Many applications don't recognize the ThinkPad scroll feature (the default)

Works in:
  • A) Firefox
    B) Windows Explorer
Doesn't work in:
  • A) OpenOffice
    B) Gaim
    C) GIMP
yes, I'm an open-source junkie!8)

2) For some reason, games do not recognize the middle mouse button as such (even when I set it to neither in the mouse properties section).

Thanks for your time!

Okay - I'll bite. What is MMB?

If you set scroll to Smooth, it usually works in most applications. I do not like the behavior though.
