+wave+ Hi

I'm new to the list (and indeed to whiteboards) so apologies if this question has already been answered. A member of staff who is left-handed has reversed the left-right mouse button functions. This change has been made to her staff profile, so that when she logs in in our training room (where we have our ActivBoard) the functions are reversed on the activ pen/wand. Is there a simple solution to this or is it the case she will have to swap left/right mouse button functions back when she uses the ActivBoard?

Thanks!

That is an interesting scenario.

Noted for review.

It continues to amaze me how useful this site is. Not just for you guys but also for the development team. You see we don't get out much so we rely upon information like this being passed under the (locked) door of our development room.

This is an excellent request and I'm baffled as to why (after 10 years) I've not heard anyone ask for this before ! Watch this space.

Please keep the suggestions coming. As Mark says they are all considered.

I have just finished adding this feature to the driver. This will be in the driver release after next (no availability date yet).

Kathryn,

It is enthusiasm and responses like yours that is what it is all about. [clap] The software is as it is because we have been able to implement changes and accommodate people's requests. Glad you are pleased! I note your signature states Bournemouth University - which dept are your boards? Do other faculties have them too?

Yep! :o This somehow slipped through the net.
Today the forum is now regularly monitored for requests and they are all officially considered.

Hi Margaret

We've only got 2 boards at the moment, which are located in 2 staff development rooms but we are planning to have a training event to raise awareness to perhaps encourage others to use the whiteboards.

Thanks again for all responses

Best wishes
