<title>Mouse Orientation</title>

<para>
|
|
A mouse behaves differently based on whether the user is right
|
|
or left handed. If they're right handed, the left button is the
|
|
action button, while the right button is the menu button. The
|
|
mouse also typically sits on the right hand side of the desk.
|
|
If the user is left handed, they use the right button as the
|
|
action button, while the left button is the menu button. It
|
|
also sits on the left hand of the desk.

To configure the hand orientation, select the

<guibutton>Left-handed mouse</guibutton> button. If you're

right handed, deselect that button. Press

<guibutton>Apply</guibutton> to apply your changes.
