You may be able to see it doing that on the Keyboard Viewer, which is on the Input Menu icon (enable that icon in Sys prefs/Input Sources). If it is you can use Keyboard/Shortcuts to change what F12 does. > What do people use for a basic mouse? Is there a basic mouse with a > scroll-ball? How can I configure the third mouse button? I'm using a Logitech MX Master as my other mouse (for games that need independent left and right click, as well as more buttons), but they're £60 when they're on sale...
