How Do I Assign A Favorite Web Address to WebWheel?
WebWheel comes pre-configured with five web addresses. These web pages give you an overview of possible addresses which you may wish to assign to your WebWheel. However, it is easy to change assignments to your own choice of web addresses.
-
Open your web browser, then navigate to the desired web address.
-
Launch WebWheel by pressing the assigned WebWheel button.
-
Rolling the device wheel or moving the mouse, select the section of the WebWheel where the web address is to be placed.
-
To assign the web address, press and hold the CTRL key while clicking the assigned WebWheel button.
-
In the dialog box that displays, enter a name for the web address, then click the assigned WebWheel button.
Tip: Since the Back function is always the starting point when bringing up the WebWheel, a double-click on the wheel-button executes the Back function.
Note: The WebWheel browser command icons (Back, Stop, Reload, Bookmarks/Favorites) will appear with a small red "X" when you are not in your web browser.
WebWheel requires Windows 95, Windows 98, or Windows NT.
