  3. Sep 01, 2011 IntelliPoint 8.2 includes support for the Microsoft Explorer Touch Mouse and an application to practice using the Microsoft Touch Mouse. With IntelliPoint 8.2, setup automatically detects your mouse model. If you have more than one mouse attached to your computer, each mouse model can have different button assignments.
  4. 2017-4-11  IntelliPoint 软件允许您自定义 Microsoft 鼠标的独特功能,以便满足特定要求。使用 IntelliPoint 鼠标软件,您可以重新分配每个鼠标按钮(包括滚轮按钮),使之执行某一命令或键盘快捷方式,如“撤销”、“关闭”或应用程序特定功能。.
  5. 2001-11-30  I've temporarily ditched my Intellipoint Explorer for a Kensington MouseInABox four button mouse. It doesn't have as nice a feel as the Intellipoint, but it has drivers. The Intellipoint just moved too slow even with the Mouse Control Panels fastest setting for me to use it.

Features[edit]

Software features may only be available with certain mice models. (Button options are specific to the selected model.) On Mac OS X 10.4-10.7.x, IntelliPoint features can be accessed by opening Microsoft Mouse in System Preferences.[2]

Depending on the software version and specific mouse product, users can define mouse buttons to run any executable program or file they desire (or a control key + letter combination) and can even define buttons for different functions in chosen programs.

With IntelliPoint 4, users were able to specify mouse wheel behavior to scroll one screen at a time. This feature was useful in situations where the user had to work with windows of varying size and a fixed scroll rate alternated from being too fast or too slow depending on each window. This feature was incorporated into the Windows XP operating system[3] and removed in IntelliPoint 5.[citation needed] The 'Alt+Tab' button combination was also replaced with 'Next Window,' effectively preventing users from alternating between specific programs, and instead having to cycle through one by one (although this can be hacked back in the registry[4]).

Scrolling[edit]

Universal Scrolling is a software function within IntelliPoint that allows a scroll wheel to work with programs that do not natively support that method of input. If a program supports scroll wheels natively, the Universal Scrolling feature will generally not interfere with the native implementation.

Supported mice[edit]

IntelliPoint supports all known Microsoft mice, as well as generic 3/5-button mice.
