<p>Set your type of mouse: 1, 2 or 3 button mouse. You can simulate the 2nd (=right) mouse button by holding down <span class="key">CTRL</span> while left-clicking. For the 3rd (=middle) mouse button, it's <span class="key">CTRL</span>&#160;<span class="key">ALT</span> and a left-click. A middle-click is also simulated by clicking left and right button together. Useful for notebooks, which mostly don't have a 3rd button.</p>
<p>You can rearrange the mouse buttons by clicking on them and choose their new meaning from the drop-down menu.</p>
<p>With the sliders to the right, you adjust double-click speed, mouse speed and acceleration.</p>
<p><span class="menu">Focus follows mouse</span> means, that you don't have to click into a window to activate it. There are three modes:</p>
<table summary="layout" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
<tr><td><span class="menu">Enabled</span></td><td>&#160;</td><td>The window under the mouse pointer is always activated automatically, but doesn't pop to the front.</td></tr>
<tr><td><span class="menu">Warping</span></td><td>&#160;</td><td>Choosing a window from Deskbar or the <a href="twitcher.html">Twitcher</a> will have the mouse pointer glide smoothly toward it.</td></tr>
<tr><td class="onelinetop"><span class="menu">Instant-Warping</span></td><td>&#160;</td><td>Choosing a window from Deskbar or the Twitcher will have the mouse pointer jump instantly toward it.</td></tr>
</table>
<p>All settings are immediately applied.</p>
<table summary="layout" border="0" cellpadding="2" cellspacing="0">
<tr><td><span class="button">Defaults</span></td><td>&#160;</td><td>resets everything to default values.</td></tr>
<tr><td><span class="button">Revert</span></td><td>&#160;</td><td>brings back the settings that were active when you started the Mouse preferences.</td></tr>
