That mouse scroll wheel thing is huge - I use it to scroll window contents, so when it's basically resizing, rotating, spinning, or zooming in and out on things when I'm trying to scroll down (like in everything else I mouse around in) it's really annoying. It may not be a "wrong" choice but it's not the way I operate the rest of my software, so it's hard to unlearn what I've trained myself to do on all my other apps - even the other ones I'm using at the same time as FG.<br /><br />I'm sure some of this will go away with familiarity, but it was really a big impediment to game last night.Peter Dhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14246000382321978462noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7817710432110712270.post-78787665003322239262014-04-20T13:53:27.499-04:002014-04-20T13:53:27.499-04:00A bit of FYI about FG:
