Running Wildfire 4.0.
Just plugged in an Evoluent VerticalMouse 4.

I have no “query” and no “alternate menu” functions (right mouse button).

Anyone know anything about this?

Thank you all,

    I have been using one of those for a couple of years, really helped with my hand pain, love it. Are you running the Evoluent Mouse manager? I it I have the buttons assigned as:


    1 - left click


    2 -right click


    3 - Disabled


    4 - wheel/middle click


    5 - back


    6 - forward


    2 is the equivalent to the RMB on a horizontal mouse.


    3 is the button all the way at the bottom, I kept accidently bumping that button on objects on my cluttered desk which led to some bad things hence the disabled setting.

    I was having hand and forearm problems using a "standard" mouse. I started researching "handshake" oriented mouses and liked what I saw in the Evoluent mouse ($110 on Amazon). The price being what it is and not being sure if it would solve my problems I decided to purchase an Anker Vertical mouse ($20 on Amazon). I REALLY like it. It has solved all my arm and hand ailments. I think I will upgrade to the Evoluent mouse.
