Most Useful Dual-Screen Program Ever
by Jonas Blake on May.01, 2009, under Life Upgrade
When I first got a second monitor for my office workstation, I put up a dual-screen wallpaper of the earth, and almost got vertigo. It was awesome.
But the first time I had to read something on one monitor and write about it on the other, I ran into scrolling problems. Unfortunately, in my version of Windows at least, you have to click on a window to activate it before you can scroll. And then you have to click on the other window in order to type some more.
Incredibly frustrating.
But then I found this amazing program, Wizmouse, by Antibody Software. It is a free, tiny application that starts with windows and runs in the background. It only does one thing, but it does it very, very well.
It makes the mouse wheel scroll the window that the mouse is over, rather than the window that is selected.
Big difference. Huge!
Try it, you will see what I am talking about.
