Cursor Software

?t7y8f^{!!e\Y] j<5_Sa%U_o" · September 24th, 2008, 11:08 AM

I'm looking for a program I used to have many years ago. The time has come when I need it and for the life of me, I can't remember its name.

This application works by dividing the screen into four areas. Once you press the appropriate key to select one of the quadrants, that quadrant is divided into four. This process continues until the cursor is above the desired control. It is much like MouseKeys included with Windows, but more precise.

If anybody knows this program, please let me know.

Nah, sorry, but your username HAS to be the most unpractical ever...

Sounds like a really strange piece of software, sounds like the name should have something to do with a fly's eyes. Don't know what it is, but I can't think of a reason you'd use it. Mice are cheap these days aren't they?

^ I suspect it's for people that can't use a mouse and I imagine it would be a very useful piece of software for them.

matt2000 · September 25th, 2008, 01:43 PM

Yeah in that case it would be very useful.

Mice are incredibly cheap and easy to come by. Problem is, using one can cause tremendous pain in my wrist. Also, games and Flash elements in web pages are notorious for having very few keyboard shortcuts.

Trackball?

^ I love my trackball and I can use it all day with no pain or anything.

As far as the program you're looking for my computer has something similar called Acer Grid Vista and it's pretty darn cool.

Yeah, you don't want your wrist to be strained for those nights you put that nice frilly outfit of yours on.

I haven't used a trackball for a veeery long time. I like the idea though and I bet they help RSI sufferers a huge amount. images/smilies/smile.gif

What would Kajun do in that dress that he would have trouble doing with a knackered wrist?

Oh, oh god. I hope not... images/smilies/blink.gif
