MORE INFORMATION

Steps to Reproduce Behavior

  1. Install the Microsoft Mouse driver version 9.0 or 9.01 for Windows.

  2. Open the Mouse Manager application installed in the Mouse group in the Program Manager. Select the Snap-To check box located in the Extra Points section of the Mouse Manager dialog box. Choose OK.

  3. To demonstrate the functionality of the snap-to feature, choose Exit from the File menu in the Program Manager. Once you have chosen Exit, do not move the mouse. When the Exit Windows dialog box appears, note that the mouse pointer is positioned above the OK button, which is the default option.

When the dialog box appears requesting that the changes be saved, note that the mouse pointer has not moved.
