Configuring Mighty Mouse

Mighty Mouse is preconfigured to launch Dashboard from the scroll ball button and

Exposé from the side buttons, but you can configure a number of custom options:
 Configure the scroll ball button to launch Application Switcher, then move from one

task to another with a scroll.

 Set any button to start a new Spotlight search and find what you’re looking for.

 Change the side buttons from displaying all windows in Exposé to displaying only

the windows in the current application.

 Open any application you choose from any button on Mighty Mouse—just select

“other” from the button pop-up menu and browse for applications in the Finder.

 Designate either top-shell button as your primary button.

Open the Keyboard & Mouse preferences to set up Mighty Mouse as a one-button

mouse or configure it as a multibutton mouse. You’ll see pop-up button menus, plus

tracking, scrolling, and double-clicking controls. You can choose your primary and

secondary button designation, reassign which applications you want to open with

Mighty Mouse, and customize your scrolling capability.
