hi russell,

button two ( middle button ) drags; it also makes the scrollbar 'jump' to
any part of the scrollbar if you position the cursor there and just click
it. fyi, the amount of scrolling done by buttons one and three is
proportional to your distance from the top of the window. i.e. clicking at
the top end of the scrollbar will scroll up or down one line at a time, in
the middle will scroll half the screen at a time and at the bottom the whole
screen at a time. so you can scroll up and down without having to move your
mouse. it really is extremely well thought out - i wish all scroll bars
worked this way :)

regards,
siegfried.

I just found clicking the right button scrolls everything
down, and the left button click scrolls everything up.

Is there a way to give the left mouse button a 'drag' action?
