WizMouse - mouse tweaks

#1 Post by antibody »

I'm the developer of WizMouse and I've just created a portable version. It would be great if you would consider adding it to your web site. WizTree is another of my free tools and I see it's already listed here. :)

Normally windows sends mouse messages to the window that currently has focus. This means you have to click on a window before you can scroll it with your mouse wheel. WizMouse redirects all mouse scroll wheel commands to the window currently under your mouse pointer, which means you don't have to switch focus between windows to scroll them. It can also optionally enable the mouse wheel in applications that don't support mouse wheels - it does this by converting mouse wheel messages to scroll bar messages. Other options include "reverse mouse scrolling" (like "natural scrolling" on Mac OS X Lion), and bringing the scrolling window to the foreground.

The portable version can be downloaded from here (click on the "portable zip" link under the download button):
http://antibody-software.com/web/softwa ... ard-drive/

The portable version is brand new so I'd appreciate any feedback if you find any problems with it.

Edit: I've added it to the database here - http://www.portablefreeware.com/index.php?id=2528
Please vote! :)

I'd like to submit this to the database but I don't see an "Add Entry" option next to my name. There's just a R0? It has been 7 days since I joined. Perhaps somebody else could add it for me?

I'm assuming you have read TPFC owner's post concerning adding entries (http://www.portablefreeware.com/forums/ ... 974#p20974); if the "Add Entry" link still isn't available to you in TPFC main page (see image below) you might want to ask the owner/moderator for clarified (or updated?) directives.

Thanks for the info but that doesn't work for me. I get "You do not have sufficient rights to access this function."

Anyhow, it's not a big deal. WizMouse doesn't have to be listed here. Thanks anyway. :)

I have sent a PM about it to Andrew. You should be able to add WizMouse, and the problem may well affect other new TPFC members as well.

Thanks mate. It's still not working - hopefully it gets sorted soon.

@antibody: Could you please try again? Your user account was flagged previously, which causes the "Add entry" function to be disabled. I have unflagged your account, so it should be enabled now.

@SYSTEM: Thanks for alerting me to this.

WizMouse Portable 1.7.0.3

#13 Post by antibody »

WizMouse Portable has been updated to 1.7.0.3
This version updates the reverse mouse scrolling option to behave in a more similar way to Mac OS "natural" scrolling (the wheel direction is no longer reversed when the control key is held down).

Direct download:
