Symptoms

You are trying to switch the mouseclicks on a mouse to accommodate a left hander by using the
Windows Mouse properties option check box “Switch primary and secondary buttons.”

Except for the navigator of OC the mouseclick switching the left and right mouseclicks works fine. However, in the OC navigator, only the options for the right mouseclick are presented to the user when either the left or the right mouse button is clicked. The functions which were on the left mouseclick, the primary choices, are no longer available in OC’s navigator.
This appears to be the only application in which this problem occurs.
