Using the MouseKeys
It was just a few days ago that I had written a post on “using keyboard to perform mouse function”. Still, I heard from some of my readers that they are having difficulties with using the MouseKeys for performing various functions like clicking and dragging. Moving the cursor is pretty much simple though:
To move the mouse pointer by using MouseKeys:
Use the buttons on the numeric keypad to move the mouse pointer.
o To move the pointer horizontally or vertically, press the arrow keys on your numeric keypad.
o To move the pointer diagonally, press HOME, END, PAGE UP, or PAGE DOWN on your numeric keypad.
To click by using MouseKeys:
Use the buttons on the numeric keypad to click, double-click, or right-click. If MouseKeys doesn't function, press NUM LOCK, and then try MouseKeys again.
o To click, press 5 on your numeric keypad.
o To double-click, press the plus sign (+) on your numeric keypad.
o To right-click, press the minus sign (-) on your numeric keypad, and then press 5 to click, or press the plus sign (+) to double-click.
o To click as if you were using both mouse buttons at once, press the asterisk (*) on your numeric keypad, and then press 5 to click or the plus sign (+) to double-click.
o To switch back to standard clicking, press slash (/) on your numeric keypad.
Use the buttons on the numeric keypad to drag and drop objects.
o To move the pointer over the object you want to move or over the area you want to move to, press the arrow keys on your numeric keypad.
o To hold down the mouse button, press the INSERT key on your numeric keypad.
o To release the mouse button, press the DELETE key on your numeric keypad.
