Scroll without a mouse - how it works
This can happen during an important presentation: The mouse gives up the ghost. In this tip, we explain how to scroll without the mouse in this case.
Scrolling without a mouse - keyboard keys offer a replacement
- Dodge the "Page up" and "Page down" buttons (see picture). These are usually located in the upper right area of the keyboard. The keys are partially hidden on laptop keyboards, but are also available.
- Scrolling also works with the buttons when a mouse is connected.
- Alternatively, in some applications you can scroll with the normal arrow keys on the keyboard. This often allows slower scrolling.
You don't have a keyboard? Then switch to the on-screen keyboard.
