- We highly recommend that you use OsiriX with a multi-buttons and wheel mouse. You will be able to navigate more efficiently than by using a simple unique button mouse.
- Left button = currently selected function
- Right button = zoom (The toolbar will allow you to choose a different function to be assigned to this right button)
- Wheel = navigate in the series
- We highly recommend that you use OsiriX with a multi-buttons and wheel mouse. You will be able to navigate more efficiently than by using a simple unique button mouse.
- c) Jog-wheel
- OsiriX is compatible with these new jog-wheel devices from Contour Design (http://www.contourdesign.com/ ). OsiriX is able to fully exploit these devices to quickly navigate in 5 dimensions.
