AREV Specific

I am using a mouse in a recently upgrade AREV system from 2.12 to 3.12

Currently both buttons operate the same. Can I change this to have the right hand button displaying the Help. If i have three buttons I could have the left as normal, center for Help and Right for Options.

If you know let me know. I would be greatful

Regards

Andrew,

There is an include record that lays out some of the parameters for mouse control in 3.12 – MOUSE_CONSTANTS. Here is another record that specifies mouse controls in ARev.

Note that the settings in both includes match those available for DOS mouse programming as specified by Microsoft.
