I have a trackball "trackman wheel" from logitech since one week.
I use it since 3 days in allegro, i use stokes (easy!), the most difficult for
me is roaming (press middle button and role the ball, less easy than with a
regular mouse for me).
Actually, it is not such efficent than with the mouse, but i have only 3 days
of practice.
And carpal tunnel too...

Objet : [PCB_FORUM] mouse challenge!
I've recently moved to a Logitech Marble Trackball mouse due to carpal tunnel.
I'd like to know if anyone has a good example of a dedicated lefthand trackball
mouse.
I find trackball mice helps greatly with the carpal tunnel.
Any other thoughts on mice to assist with carpal tunnel would be welcome.
And no I don't use strokes in Allegro.
Had to mention Allegro once in the e-mail ...:-)

It is damn near impossible to use strokes with a trackball :)

In a previous life, I was doing schematic entry in Mentor and learned the
"strokes"!
Wow they were just great. Once you get used to them they are very powerful.
When I started up on Cadence I found they had only a few strokes and most of
them
didn't work well so I went back to using function keys for the basic things.
Of course
it doesn't help much that Cadence follows the Select a process then select
the thing the
process is to affect. Whereas Mentor you select the item, then tell it what
process you want to
use.
One of these days I will train my Cadence tool how to use strokes better but
as a librarian
there are only a few basic things I need now.

I've seen those strokes performed by Mentor users, and it works really
fast. Some of them look like ninja's just stroking their mouse.

LOL... the Mentor people think "strokes" are the best thing since sliced
bread.
Give me configurable keyboard control anyday.

env variable, "unset no_dynamic_zoom"
why on earth it's even an option? about as much use as strokes.

Hey guys,
I'm not sure what's going on with my mouse, or if it's even a result of
upgrading to 15.5.
Before, while on 15.2, clicking the middle mouse button would continue
zooming in if I had just zoomed in.
If I had just zoomed out, the middle mouse button would continue the zooming
out when clicked.
Now, clicking the middle mouse button zooms me in, whether I just zoomed out
or in.
Not a big deal, but anyone have any clues as to where this is set?
Thanks!
