mouse functions

[mmetzinger]

In my other CAM software, I can use the middle mouse button to "OK" a dialogue. I can't seem to do this on MCam, so I was wondering if it's just my settings on my computer, or if this is not possible in MCam. It saves on uneeded mouse movement to find the OK button and it saves my wrist!! Any help would be appreciated

Alt+O (not zero) will select OK for you. I went into my mouse settings and could not find a way to make the center button select the OK button. I'm using a logitech cordless mouse. I can make it do/perform a whole host of other functions though.

 

Sorry,

So Alt-O will do Ops Manger and OK for you in MC?

WOW.

It depends where you are. If you have a "Window" open and you see an "OK" button with an underline under the O, it is considered as a mouse click on the OK button.

 

If you do not have a "Window" open, then Alt+O takes you to the operations manager. Man, I'm wondering what Version 10 is going to be like, I guess it'll take soem getting used to.......

I have a 5 button scroll mouse.

The left and right buttons are left and right click as normal.

The middle scroll wheel works as a scroll wheel

and a button. Its button function is set to F1 (start of Zoom WIndow).

The left thumb button is set to Escape (backup command on the menu bar).

I use inovate (from ironcad) sometimes. The middle button is used for rotating of the part. Since I started using inovate I always try to do the same in mastercam. It's a really good feature. Grows on you right away.
