Discussion Problem typing with mouse

[videobruce]

I'm having a huge problem when I type to the extent I spend more correcting the mistypes then I do typing the the sentence.
What is happening is my second finger is hitting the right button (on a standard mouse) and bring up the context menu. Is here a mous with a shorter right cli k button were it's harder to hit that button?

Hope that made sense.

How does typing on the keyboard with fingers of both hands involve the mouse? Are you talking about hitting the touchpad right button on a laptop?

Indirectly. Typing sometimes involves the mouse.

It would help if you can show your normal keyboard mouse setup with a photo.

In the meantime, there's this unusual looking mouse: https://www.logitech.com/en-us/products/mice/lift-vertical-ergonomic-mouse.html

Its a Ingram Mico with a "V" on the top. Very common. Two large buttons with the scroll wheel in betweew.

At $70 it should be interesting. .

With this mouse, you are more likely to hit the middle button which won't do anything, hopefully since WIndows doesn't use the middle button.

Out of stock old mouse. Available used on eBay: https://www.ebay.com/itm/225105420268

Right mouse button is in the middle in this one: https://www.amazon.com/BKLNOG-Wireless-Vertical-Ergonomic-Computer/dp/B08QYNKPFK/

That might be best for you. The button is thin enough that your finger will strike the area with no button.

This one has the buttons on the left side so no chance you can hit them by mistake: https://www.amazon.com/Bluetooth-Ergonomic-Mouse-Wireless-Adjustable/dp/B09V735SQV/

Thanks, but I don't know if I can get use to it.
