Mouse Snap-To Feature Snaps to Wrong Location

• Microsoft Mouse Driver for Windows, version 9.0
• Microsoft IntelliPoint software versions 1.0, 1.1

SUMMARY

The Snap-to feature lets you configure your mouse to automatically jump to the default button in any dialog box. In some applications, Snap-to moves the mouse to the wrong location or does not move it at all. The method Snap-to uses to locate the default button causes these problems.

MORE INFORMATION

Snap-to looks for default buttons that were created as button objects. Some applications (such as Microsoft Works version 2.0 for Windows) use owner-drawn buttons (bitmaps). With these applications, there is no object information for Snap-to to find.

Snap-to moves to the default button's original location. Some applications (such as Microsoft Excel for Windows, version 4.0 and Microsoft Access for Windows, versions 1.0 and 1.1) draw the dialog box, and then resize the box before displaying it. With these applications, Snap-to snaps to the original location even though the redrawn dialog box is no longer there.
