    Default Middle mouse wheel button not panning

    Howdy y'all.

    I'm using a Microsoft Optical mouse with Windows 2000. When I try to use the middle wheel button to pan, it switches to another program on my computer. I'm pretty sure this is a setting with the mouse and not an ACAD issue, but I don't know what to switch.

    Same program? You may want to look in the Mouse Driver's settings.
    If you have a technical question, please find the appropriate forum and ask it there.
    You will get a quicker response from your fellow AUGI members than if you sent it to me via a PM or email.

    A couple of options:

    1) Do you have a mouse icon down near your system clock? If so click and expand it and check your settings.

    2) If not, go to START - SETTINGS - CONTROL PANEL Double Click MOUSE - Your settings should show up there.

    I know I've had Windows Explorer as one of my mouse buttons in the past so its very likely a mouse setting. If everything looks fine, be sure there isn't a "software specific" setting on the mouse menu, if so, its possible this feature is just turned on when AutoCAD is open and might not show on your initial mouse configuration screen.

    Found it. I checked the FAQ. ID: TS84054 - Cannot pan or zoom using IntelliMouse wheel button fixed my problem.
