for Kids: Mouse Practice III
Now you are ready for
a third basic skill..
3. Scrolling - Moving up and down within a web page or other computer window.
This is done by using the mouse to move the "elevator" up and down within
the scroll bar at the far right of this screen. You can do this in three ways:
-
To move one line at
a time, click on the
arrow at the top of the scroll bar or the
arrow at the bottom. Try it now (Click on the down arrow until you see the
words Very Good).
Very Good! Now try this...
-
To move one screen
at a time, click on the empty space within the scroll bar, above
or below the elevator. Try to move one page down on this screen.
You're pretty good at this! Here's a little trick you can use...
-
To move anywhere within
the document, point to the elevator itself. Press and hold down
the left mouse button. Now you can slide the elevator up or down by sliding
the mouse on the mouse pad. Release the button when you want to stop.
Now just Click
