[WT-support] 2 Problems during CQ WW

..  yes, leave it to Microsoft to confuse a MOUSE!  

 

The  Manual to which you provided a link does NOT match my Mouse.  The
manual you cite is a “Wireless Notebook PRESENTER Mouse 8000”.

 

However I have a Microsoft Wireless LASER Mouse 8000 which does not have
bottom buttons – nor “Digital Ink” button.

 

Both are Bluetooth, made by Microsoft, and bear the number 8000 – but they
are not the same.

 

The important thing to me is that Win-Test is the only application I run on
this Laptop that does not work with the Microsoft Wireless Laser Mouse 8000.

It seems this mouse wheel / Windows 7 problem is not unique to Win-Test.

See this
<http://social.answers.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/w7hardware/thread/2881bb2a
-0ebf-42ff-b3a9-c2ef535d9b1f>  thread.

Note also that this particular mouse has a special "digital ink mode"
(toggled by a small button below mouse button 1); maybe the wheel doesn't
work when it is in this mode?

The Microsoft Mouse 8000 manual
<http://download.microsoft.com/download/0/3/6/036edd2f-8ba5-43e7-93c3-202c2a
1e4d3e/X12-33594-02_NA_EN_XC_FR_IT_PT_ES.pdf>  sure is cryptic.  Leave it to
Microsoft to complicate something as simple as a mouse.

The Mouse Wheel does not change the Scale in Win-Test.  The Bluetooth Mouse
Wheel does work with other Applications.

I tried hooking up a USB Microsoft Intellimouse Optical and its Mouse Wheel
does change the Scale in Win-Test.

Hi Dave

Except if the bandmap window is not the topmost window, I don't see any
reason why it wouldn't work.
