Changing the settings of the mouse

I am using windows 7 on my laptop. When I select double click for my optical mouse left button and click on apply or OK, I get a message that "no click has been selected", even if I tried the speed of double click etc. While I have the mouse properties open and double-click on selected, will be openthings with a double click, it will not save the setting. Any help would be appreciated.

  • Change the mouse click on display once for all the clicks?

    When you create a demonstration of the software in Captivate, I would like to change the mouse click default Visual to the custom effect 'blue circle' for all clicks.  Is there a way to change the default or modify all mouse clicks with an entry?  It is possible to change the shape of all occurrences of the mouse pointer by right clicking a mouse, but it doesn't seem to be a similar option for the click of mouse vizualized.

  • Change the mouse pointer in the simulation?

    Hello

    is it possible to change the appearance of the pointer mouse in a software simulation (on a single slide)?

    I got to change the pointer in demo mode.

    Kind regards

    Jurek

    Sure.  Simply select the subject of the mouse on the slide where you want it to be different and then select another pointer in the Options tab.  If you want to use a pointer that is not listed, you can click the Browse button to navigate to a cursor file replacing. Please note that the format must be .cur, not just a graphic file.

    If you want to get really creative and change the mouse cursor for something completely different, maybe it replaced with a graphic file, it is also possible using a widget.

    Just a new Aspire E5 for my girlfriend and can't see how to change the options of touchpad (for example, sensitivity, scroll to settings, etc). On my V3 571 G acer from the base of the mouse options I can go in "momentum" to change various options but do not seem to have (or cannot be found) this option on the new E5... any advice.

  • keyboard shortcuts do not change the mouse pointer, unless you move

    Hi guys...

    I've just updated my after effects (V13.1.0.111), and now every time I have put the cursor on the main window of the video and hit a hotkey to put in place a new tool, the mouse pointer does not change.  It changes only once you move the mouse.

    It's especially frustrating when you use the camera tools.  So when cycling through tools "move", "rotation" and "orientation" by pressing C, you can't see which tool is active, unless you continually move the mouse.

    Anyone else having this problem?

    See you soon

    Yes, it is a bug.
