hi,I am a left hand
I fixed"Tablet and Pen Setting " on control panel
but still I can not move up and down the screen because my hand is in front

I do appreciate help to move the "right side line" used to scroll down to
the left side

tks and ciao GIGI

For the most part, the operating system controls the positioning of the
scroll bar, Gigi, and there's nothing we can do (until the Longhorn OS) to
move the scroll. Bill Gates of Microsoft is a lefty, too, and believe me,
if it were possible it would be done.

You can do some things within newer programs like OneNote and GoBinder to
move toolbars, etc., but most programs remain locked in their position and
inflexible. I have some suggestions for moving things like the Taskbar on
my web site. I'm a righty, but have a lefty daughter, so am well aware of
the issues.

Gigi,
The scroll bar issue has been a problem since the first round of table
software twelve years ago. Give MindManager X5 Pro a try, and you'll see
that in addition to being ink enabled, you'll see the task pane and scroll
bars are on the left of the screen if you have the OS configured as
left-handed.

Gigi,

I'm a left hand too and i wondered if you had discovered any other problems
attached to being a lefty?`

I'm not left-handed, Karsten, but do have a lefty daughter who runs a Tablet
PC just fine. As we've previously discussed here, there are some programs
(OneNote or GoBinder, for instance) where you can move the toolbars, etc.,
to different sides or the bottom of the screen. But those are new programs
since the Tablets have come out.

Microsoft has said the "fix" for right- or left-oriented scroll bars, etc.,
won't come until the Longhorn operating system, since the method used is so
deeply imbedded in the operating system. The current issue is switching
things around needs to be done within the programs themselves (as the new
ones attest) and without thousands of software companies re-writing their
programs, it cannot be accomplished.

I've got some hints on my web pages in my signature line, and can tell you I
run my Tablets with the Taskbar located on the left side of the screen
(right-handed, remember?) so it isn't under my hand a lot.
