How to Enable Smart Move

"Smart Move" is a feature of a Logitech mouse, included in their program SetPoint. This feature automatically moves the mouse pointer to the default button when dialog boxes appear. For example, you have probably seen a dialog box asking "Are you sure you want to move this file to the Recycle Bin?" or something to that effect. With Smart Move enabled, the mouse pointer would automatically move to the "Yes" button, so you don't have to move before clicking it.



Although "Smart Move" is a feature of Logitech mice, Windows 7 also has this feature in its basic mouse controls. However, Windows calls this feature "Snap To."
