Universal Scrolling refers to a software function within a mouse driver that allows a scroll wheel to work with programs that do not natively support that method of input. Usage of the term is not standardized; specific behaviors, programming methodologies, and compatibility with applications may vary between drivers from different vendors.
If a program supports scroll wheels natively, the Universal Scrolling feature will generally not interfere with the native implementation.

Famous quotes containing the word universal:
“Without doubt God is the universal moving force, but each being is moved according to the nature that God has given it.... He directs angels, man, animals, brute matter, in sum all created things, but each according to its nature, and man having been created free, he is freely led. This rule is truly the eternal law and in it we must believe.”
—Joseph De Maistre (1753–1821)
