What finger do you use to scroll the mouse?

[usmanity]

I'm trying to switch from index to middle finger. It's odd at times, some days it's completely normal for me to use middle finger.

When I'm doing any graphic design work on the computer, only the index works.

Middle finger. Wow, I didn't expect so many people using the index finger. I just tried it and it feels weird!

[D!ABOL!C]

I use my index finger, it just feels right.

Index, although it's different on my MacBook for obvious reasons.

Index.

Ha can't believe this has been going for 5 pages!

Index for the win of course. Any other finger is just wrong and offensive!

Middle for me. I prefer using my index for left clicking and fourth for right clicking.

Index ftw! It feels just odd when I use middle finger.

I use my middle finger for scrolling. Index for left click, and middle as well for right click.

I use my index finger... but I know somebody who uses their thumb for both clicking and scrolling (on a standard mouse too) :laugh:

I thought the middle finger scrolling was weird, but damn, your guy beat it. That's just bizarre.

I left-click and scroll with my index finger and right click with my middle finger.

This ^^

So most people lift their finger from the most frequently used button to scroll? Odd.

+1....

I left-click much more often than right-click, so I tend to use my mostly free middle-finger to scroll as opposed to my already mostly-in-use index finger to move off the mouse1 button to the scroll wheel to simply scroll. It takes longer (for me at least) to move my index finger off my mouse1 button to the scroll wheel, than it does to rest my middle finger on the scroll wheel and mouse button, and simply push it slightly to one side or the other depending on what I want to do.

I'm left handed and use my index finger, but my toad uses his middle finger.
