Manuals

:::tip

The manuals refer to the mouse buttons by their color. On a modern 3-button mouse, the colors map as the following:

  • Red = Left mouse button
  • Yellow = Middle mouse button
  • Blue = Right mouse button

On most mouses, pressing the scroll-wheel simulates pressing the middle mouse button.
