Re: Can't use my scroll wheel in FM 7 on Mac in Classic

[Ankur Srivastava]

Hi Peter,

I don't know whether this would work with Mac or not but there is a
solution:


Frreewheel.exe (it's a free s/w) that allows the mousewheel to work on such
applications (which do not allow NATURALLY to work with mousewheel). Please
refer to the info related to this exe and the ways to download it in the
webpage mentioned below.

Thanks,

Thanks for your reply.

I just gave USB Overdrive a test. After installing it and restarting,
it seemed that FM hung, but it might have been that I just didn't set
anything in the USB Overdrive control panel.

I think the best clue in your note is about installing under Classic.
I probably need to install the MS Mouse software under Classic or
restart in 9.22 and install it, then go back to OS X and Classic.

Thanks, again.

Can't use my scroll wheel in FM 7 on Mac in Classic

[Peter Gold]

I'm using a new (to me) Mac PowerBook. On my other PowerBook, same OS X 10.3.9, 
same Classic 9.22, I can scroll in FM with any of my scroll-wheeled mice. On 
this new machine, though, I can't. I can't remember installing any special 
software for the older machine, other than the MS Mouse/Mac software, and I 
don't see anything in the System Preferences Mouse/Trackpad or MS Mouse control 
panels, or in the applications or utilities folders.

Any suggestions?

Most likely it's the configuration of the MS mouse software. However, I note 
you say 'Control panels': for Classic, you should control your mouse from OS X 
System Preferences, and remove the OS 9 Mouse control panel.

I use USB Overdrive, works just fine.



For FrameMaker, it's worth binding a few extra keys, such as Wheel Up and Wheel 
Down to command-[ and command-] - this gives you the nice ability to scroll 
through panes in the Character and Paragraph Designer dialogs with the mouse 
wheel.

USB Overdrive is a lot more versatile than any Microsoft or Logitech mouse 
software that I've seen. It was only bettered by the late lamented Kensington 
four-button mouse,the one that had all the buttons on the top (as opposed to 
the mice they make today, which appear to be intended for intergalactic aliens 
with two opposing thumbs).
