To configure the handedness of the mouse in Linux Mint, press the Super key, then type “Mouse and Touchpad” and hit enter. Linux Mint has a setting that allows you to invert the mouse buttons for those users that want a true left-handed mouse. Some left-handed users, however, may want to switch the order of the mouse buttons, essentially inverting or mirroring the traditional button layout. For many left-handed users, this may be fine, as they may well be used to this being the case. One issue with ambidextrous mice however is that the mouse still assumes that the physical left-mouse button is always the primary mouse button. This lack of extra design and features make many cheap mice suitable for use in both hands and are therefore pretty popular with left-handed people. Many cheap mice come with no ergonomics or extra buttons designed to make their use suited to a particular hand. Not everyone uses these types of mice though. Some mouse manufacturers offer left-handed mice, designed with left-handed ergonomics and buttons positioned to be suited for use in the left-hand. Unfortunately, this placing means they are specifically designed for right-handed people, as a left-handed grip just doesn’t hold the mouse in a way that makes those buttons convenient. However, many mice now include extra buttons, placed where the thumb is designed to rest, for easy use.
Physically the traditional design of the mouse with a left and right button and a scroll wheel in between is easily reversible.
This ergonomic shaping is often mostly size, height, and length, but it also covers curvature and angle. Physically a broad range of mice come with shaping designed to fit one of a few common grip styles when used in the right hand. This handed-ness design of computer mice comes in two forms, ergonomics and button order. The computer mouse is a key part of controlling a computer for most people, but the vast majority of mice are designed for use in the right-hand.
