| Working in the SAS Windowing Environment |
Using the Mouse under OpenVMS
You can use the left mouse button (MB1) to make a mark, and the middle mouse button (MB2) to paste the mark into a SAS window. Although the right mouse button (MB3) is not used in cut-and-paste operations, various procedures use MB3 to display a pop-up menu.
Note: These instructions are
based on the default setting with MB1 being the left-most mouse button. Your
mouse buttons might have been reconfigured to meet specific needs. ![[cautionend]](../../../../common/61925/HTML/default/images/cautend.gif)
| SAS Mouse Pointer Shapes |
When you use the SAS windowing interface under OpenVMS, you see several mouse pointer shapes. If the mouse pointer has its standard shape (usually an arrow), SAS is ready to receive your input.
Besides the standard shape, two other mouse pointer shapes are common:
- watch (or clock) cursor
-
indicates that you must wait. SAS is performing other tasks and is not ready to accept your input.
- dash inside a circle
-
indicates that the pointer is in an inactive window. User interaction with this window is temporarily disabled.
