Quick Tips For Mouse Placement

How you use your mouse, the size of your mouse and the placement all affect your comfort level.

 


Graphic of a MouseTips for Mouse Placement:

The best arrangement for a mouse is the same height as the keyboard home row keys. Arrange the keyboard and mouse to be at elbow height or slightly below. The best size is fitting the mouse to the inside of your palm.

A good arrangement is placed on a mouse pad to the side of the keyboard.

The worst arrangement is on the desk out to the side and above of the keyboard. Avoid reaching beyond more than 15" in front or the side.

Avoid gripping the mouse tightly.

Change body and hand positions frequently. Learn to relax your hand often.

Replace a mouse with a correct size Trackball. Allow up to 3 weeks to adjust to using the Trackball.
