Abstract
An information handling system mouse couples a scroll wheel at a scroll wheel position of the mouse upper surface to a five-way switch so that movement of the scroll wheel commands through the five-way switch a scroll up or down, a swipe left or right and a press down mouse click. An adjacent button provides precision or fast scroll through an interaction separate from the scroll wheel. A vibration device interfaced with the scroll wheel provides haptic feedback of end user interactions, such as by providing vibrations with a vertical orientation from a position below the scroll wheel.
