Mouse problems in ship designer

April 22, 2006 11:52 AM from

I noticed ever since I updated to the first beta that I can no longer use my right mouse button to rotate the ship. Upgrading to the next updates all the way up to the final beta has not fixed this problem. I had the latest drivers for all of my peripherials and hardware installed before the update and everything was fine.

I can't seem to fix this no matter what I try. Is there an option I am overlooking somewhere? I really enjoy designing ships but clicking on the swivel buttons to do so is extremely tedious. I would greatly appreciate any help.

You use the middle button/wheel to do this. Push down on the wheel if you don't have a middle button - it works the same.

You should be able to customize the mouse in the Windows Control Panel if your mouse software lets you re-assign buttons to use the right button, or emulate it if you only have a two-button mouse.

For some reason my middle mouse button got reconfigured as something else - I have no idea why. I reset it to middle mouse button and it works fine. Very strange...
