I am using a happs 3" Tball with an Opti-Pac Connected
by the Serial Port . The Problem is I can't do a click and drag. I can't move an icon in windows, drag a card in solitaire or highlite text in notepad or other wp's .
I am running win98se . If someone with a similar configuration could check this I would appreciate it.
The Tball works fine in all games I  have tried.
                            Thanks

Gorre:
I have the same problem, but it has nothing to do with the trackball.
The problem is apparently the microswitch button (combined with the Opti-Pac).

So ... I have the same problem.
:'(

ddebuss:
If I'm not mistaken, arcade buttons are momentary contact.  A mouse click - hold - and drag requires that the button be continually pressed throughout the drag process.

As far as your computer is concerned, you clicked and immediately released the button.

Jungle:
This is the same setup that I was planning on...... :-[

Would switching from microswitch to leaf style buttons fix the problem?

ddebuss:
I believe so since I don't think that leaf microswitches are momentary contact.  I have some here and I don't see how they could make them that way.

I'd give it a shot but i'd say it's about 99% that it would work.
