NX9 Middle Mouse Button

NX9 Middle Mouse Button

NX9 Middle Mouse Button

(OP)
I have someone here who is having troubles with the middle mouse button (the wheel). It works for every other program, but stopped working as an OK button for NX9. I would swear I have seen the settings for that somewhere in the past but I cannot seem to find it now. There are UG settings for it aren't there? If so, where are they?

RE: NX9 Middle Mouse Button

Did you check Control Panel > Mouse, to be sure the Middle Button Action is set to Middle Click?

Found out he fixed it himself and didn't let me know. He found a site that let him test his buttons and the first time he hit the wheel, nothing happened, then he did it again and it worked. Now it works fine. lol Just a weird glich I guess.

RE: NX9 Middle Mouse Button

There is also now a special CAD Mouse with 3 buttons AND a scroll wheel.
Works perfect in NX. See 3D Connexion.

RE: NX9 Middle Mouse Button

A trick i have used over the years when mouses behave strange is to un-install the mouse driver...
When that "Extra special driver" isn't there, Windows uses the default mouse driver, and suddenly the buttons work as expected.

Tomas
