Way back in the remote past (ie 25-30 years ago) when I was doing quite a lot of Cad work I used a thumb controlled trackball for the better accuracy it afforded, then I got a tablet thingy with a pen and threw the trackball away !! Nowadays I use a Logitech M235 wireless mouse that fits in the palm of my hand and have no problems using it. I think it was a good suggestion to rest the elbow on the desk top but there are too many other things in the way, like three keyboards/mice/monitors plus various scrap pads, microfiche and usually a cup of coffee that I have to avoid knocking over ! But I have moved stuff around a bit and will try using the mouse with the elbow supported. Just as well it is a corner style desk that wraps around me to some extent. -- John Lewis Debian & the GeneWeb genealogical data server -- Please post to: Hampshire@mailman.lug.org.uk Web Interface: https://mailman.lug.org.uk/mailman/listinfo/hampshire LUG URL: http://www.hantslug.org.uk --------------------------------------------------------------
