If you are working on your design at a large scale at the moment you can only scroll vertically, as a lot of new mice have a horizontal function by pushing the wheel left & right, so would it be possible to incorporate it into the basic windows functionality of Anyrail?

Are these mice really used a lot? If so, we can see about it.
However, we don't have them in our office yet!

Hi David.
I use a Logitech LX5 optical cordless mouse, very useful on spreadsheets, & I use the 1-1 scale to gauge if I have enough space to place a building or feature.

Hope this helps,

Hi Tony,

I've added this feature to our wish list.
Thanks for the idea!

They are also increasingly appearing on laptops... so indeed, it might not be such a bad idea to have it :)
