| SAS Companion for the OpenVMS Operating Environment |
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 System 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.
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), the SAS System 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. The SAS System
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.
